HC Deb 15 July 1982 vol 27 c457W
Mrs. Renée Short

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will seek to end the incorporation of tobacco advertisements in home video cassettes; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Geoffrey Finsberg

No, but I hope that, in accordance with the spirit of the voluntary agreement between the Government and the tobacco industry, any advertisements for cigarettes and hand-rolling tobacco will be confined to cassettes intended for an adult audience and will carry a Government health warning.
