Smoking And Blindness

EDM number 684 in 2005-06, proposed by Bob Spink on 10/10/2005.

That this House welcomes the research which shows definitively that smoking at least doubles the risk of loss of sight and will result in thousands of smokers going blind; notes calls by the Royal National Institute for the Blind for an awareness campaign on this issue; and urges the Government to undertake a publicity drive to inform smokers of this additional serious health problem associated with smoking.

This motion has been signed by a total of 76 MPs.
