HC Deb 01 May 1980 vol 983 c649W
Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he will arrange for the carrying out of a national survey, such as that carried out in 1966, to indicate the percentage of schoolboys and schoolgirls smoking cigarettes.

Sir George Young

The Department is considering how best to update and extend the information available on attitudes to, and prevalence of, smoking among children and young people, and will take the hon. and learned Gentleman's suggestion into account.
