It is a policy matter. I know many people on e-cigarettes and they have found them very effective. I take the Senator's very valid point because the method works. There is a broader debate and it is essential that I bring the Senator's point to the Minister, Deputy Harris, and the HSE. Having spoken with people, I know this method seems to be effective and it has an impact. The Senator mentioned a 36% reduction in the UK, which is dramatic. If something is out there like that as evidence, the process should be supported. I will bring that strong message back to the Minister.
