| Date | 17:13:02, August 05, 2015 CET | From | Davostan Monarchist Party | To | Debating the (CHP) Freedom in Advertising Act |
| Message | We oppose. Preventing the advertisement of dangerous substances such as tobacco lowers the number of people who will try them, and thus get addicted. This law has been shown to decrease the number of people taking up cigarettes hugely. Allowing companies to advertise and glamorise them again will increase the number of people who smoke cigarettes. |
