I would agree that it is a potential conflict of interest.
However, as I and my colleagues have said this morning, there are potential risks from these products and there are potential benefits. The benefits come only in the area of possibly being something that could help people who are already smokers quit smoking and thereby reduce their hazard. If we get into an area where people who are currently not smokers are being encouraged to use these products, whether they're young people or older people, that is not a benefit to those people, nor to public health.
Let us not forget that while some people might have told you at this committee that nicotine is benign, it is not; it is an addictive product. The only circumstances I could see that there would be some benefit is if it were to help smokers to quit. We need to construct our regulations to maximize the benefit and minimize the harm.
