The ultimate goal of this Bill is to create a tobacco-free environment. We can only do that if we discourage people from buying cigarette in one-piece sticks and, generally, avoid smoking in the long-term. So, I think we are helping them, not by helping them to afford, but by helping them to survive the effects of tobacco. So, I think we should oppose this amendment."}
