Independent senator Dr. Paul Richards calls for more restrictions on cigarettes.
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak successfully passed the first hurdle in the British Parliament, banning smoking for anyone aged 15 and under. It has sparked debate globally about access to cigarettes among minors and smoking habits that develop among adolescents. It has also caused the resurfacing of a clip from 2019 where Independent Senator Dr Paul Richards called for a ban on the sale of cigarettes in Trinidad and Tobago.
