My question is to the Minister for Health and Ageing. This morning, New South Wales Premier Chris Minns told the truth about Labor's failed illicit tobacco policy:
… I think it's perversely driving a situation where you're seeing more people not less people smoking because they've got access to readily available cheap cigarettes.
On top of the firebombings, the gang violence and the terror on our streets, will the minister admit Labor's failed tobacco policies have led to more Australians smoking illicit cigarettes?
