Camillus Glynn (Fianna Fail)

Cuirim fáilte roimh an Aire go dtí an Teach.

I move amendment No. 1:

To delete all words after "Seanad Éireann" and substitute the following:

"notes that the consumption of tobacco products and the abuse of alcohol pose a huge burden on the public health of this country, recognises the right of people to work and socialise in a clean, healthy, smoke-free atmosphere, supports the ban on smoking in places of work announced by the Minister for Health and Children on 30 January 2003, which will come into operation from 1 January 2004, notes the intention of the Minister for Health and Children to bring forward legislation to reduce the exposure of young people to alcohol advertising, and recognises the Government's commitment to implementing the recommendations contained in the interim report of the strategic task-force on alcohol."
