Following on from the concerns the Chair expressed, even having this on the Statute Book as an offence is a significant deterrent to supply of PPTs to people under 16. By taking out the section, that deterrent is gone. It essentially sounds like turning a blind eye to it. I am, therefore, quite concerned that the effect of this is essentially to give licence to people to provide PPTs to people under 16 years of age.
