§ 96. Mr. Staintonasked the Minister of Health in view of the fact that the hazards of cancer are not minimised by smokers switching from cigarettes to cigars or pipe, whether he will take steps to prohibit the advertising of cigars and pipe tobacco on television.
§ Mr. SnowNo, Studies have shown that pipe and cigar smokers are less likely to develop lung cancer than cigarette smokers. I agree nevertheless that the best advice to cigarette smokers is to stop smoking altogether.
