HC Deb 17 July 1975 vol 895 c565W
Mr. Kenneth Clarke

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what would be the estimated cost of using public funds to replace the sponsorship given by tobacco companies to cricket and motor racing if such sponsorship were made illegal.

Dr. Owen

The industry has not revealed its promotional expenditure through sponsorship but I will gladly ask its Tobacco Advisory Committee for the information sought by the hon. Member.
