I welcome the Minister's comments on the Bill which I support. Will he comment on the need to continue to charge a high price for these products? Will he comment specifically on the possibility of having an environment levy, as proposed by a number of agencies? On the question of smuggling, will he comment on the penalties for being caught in the act of smuggling tobacco products and the proposals aimed at the control of such smuggling?
