Targets were set on smoking initiation and prevalence in the Cardiovascular Report 'Changing Cardiovascular Health' which was published last year. The Tobacco Policy Review Group is considering a range of measures in relation to tobacco control. I anticipate that their report will be completed in the coming months and that this will be brought to Government for decision.
