I disagree profoundly with Mr. Jennings. As Chairman, I am impartial and respect his right to have an opinion. However, the Minister and his Ministers of State have introduced a suite of measures to ensure Ireland will be a tobacco-free society by a certain date. I do not think it is fair to say the Minister has not been working towards that goal.
