".
Mr President, Mr Purvis, I have to be quite honest with you, and tell you that I have not been informed about the results of this research; perhaps because it was conducted primarily for health reasons, and therefore falls within the remit of the Commissioner responsible for health. But I am keen to acquaint myself with them. Only, irrespective of whether these results are positive or less than positive, as I see it, it is imperative that we – and we must never forget this – convince smokers of their importance, with a view to encouraging them to buy cigarettes that meet these requirements.
It is not the tobacco growers’ problem, because they will inevitably grow the kind of tobacco the market demands. Perhaps the best all-round solution is to carry on as I have been doing for the past 15 years – I too was a smoker in the past – and not smoke at all. Then the problem will only exist on a very small scale."@en1
