HC Deb 14 March 1972 vol 833 cc61-2W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he has yet received the evaluation on tobacco substitutes from his Scientific Liaison Committee.

Sir K. Joseph

No. I understand that the Committee has begun to investigate what tests are available. This is a complicated matter which will need to be looked at in some detail and I do not expect the committee to have completed its work in this area for some time—particularly since further research may be required.
