| Message | We cannot support damaging private industry by withdrawing the legality of smoking on their premesis, it will completely oppose the government's current aims to encourage private business to prosper. We also cannot support the article in favour of removing legislation to enforce organ donation, a clear detrimental effect on the national health will result. |

| Message | While we agree with the smoking point, we support the rest of the bill. Giving people a choice is fundamental in a nation where we make so many for the people, we believe it is right to grant them some choices over their life where it will not massively effect or be detrimental to the nation as a whole. We would support a change in smoking law after this has passed. Oluwatoyin Militello NIP Spokesman for Health |
