HC Deb 19 October 1982 vol 29 c126W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if any sanctions exist within the voluntary code of practice on promotion and advertising of cigarettes in the event of a company breaking the code.

Mr. Geoffrey Finsberg:

The essence of a voluntary agreement is that the parties to it are entitled to do all they can to abide by it. The question of sanctions does riot therefore properly arise; but if the hon. Member has any particular matter in mind perhaps he would like to let me know.
