My Lords, I take as my brief what expert medical people tell me. I am in no position to second-guess what they tell me, and I would not dream of doing so. Where we have an authoritative body that advises the Government such as the Scientific Committee on Tobacco and Health, I take it as read that it is composed of people who know what they are talking about. If someone wishes to challenge that, I am ready to listen, but I do not feel sufficiently qualified to do so myself.
