Question:
To ask the Minister of Health for an update on a target date for making Northern Ireland tobacco-free.

Answer:

My Department’s 10-year Tobacco Control Strategy for Northern Ireland has the overall aim of a tobacco-free society. An end review of the strategy is currently underway and the Department will consider the appropriateness of a tobacco-free target date for Northern Ireland in the development of any future strategy.
