HC Deb 17 April 1986 vol 95 c475W
Mr. Macfarlane

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he has met any of the chairmen or secretaries of the governing bodies of sport specifically to discuss tobacco and sports sponsorship.

Mr. Tracey

No. I sought the views of the Sports Council, as the Government's advisers on sport. In formulating its advice, the council consulted the Central Council of Physical Recreation and those governing bodies currently or recently sponsored by tobacco companies.
