Public Health (Tobacco) (Amendment) Bill 2003: Committee Stage.
3:00 pm
Brian Hayes (Fine Gael)
On the prohibition of sponsorship, I presume that the operation of this section will depend on regulations or guidelines being put in place by the Department. Is the Minister in a position to tell the House if and when he will be making such regulations? I would have thought it normal in respect of any prohibition of sponsorship, on which we all support the Minister's initiative, that guidelines would need to be put in place. Alternatively, will the Minister be making orders in relation to the section?
