The British Psychological Society welcomes the passage of measures protecting young people from harm caused by tobacco into law in the Health Act 2009.
The President of the Society, Sue Gardner, says: "We regard the protection of children and young people from smoking as an extremely high priority. All the available evidence suggests that the earlier young people start to smoke the more difficult they will find it to quit."
