HC Deb 30 May 1962 vol 660 cc124-5W
Mr. Dempsey

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will consult local health and education authorities about the steps to be taken to discourage people from smoking, particularly young people and those attending secondary schools, in view of the danger to health associated with smoking.

Mr. Maclay

Careful notice is being taken of views expressed by local authorities on this subject, and I will consult further if occasion arises. For my part, initial guidance has been given to authorities, including a first batch of publicity material and further issues are in preparation.
