Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Public Health (Standardised Packaging of Tobacco) Bill 2013: Discussion (Resumed)

12:30 pm

Mr. Andrew Meagher:

I would like to answer Senator van Turnhout because she asked could we give her access to marketing data. Yes. That access is available today. Under current legislation, the office of tobacco control can walk into my office and go through my files. That is available today and has been for several years. We have nothing to hide. Let me be very clear, this is available today. It could be happening right now, while we sit here - the OTC could be in our office. We have nothing to hide.
