Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether the Government is on track to reach the smokefree 2030 target.

This Government is committed to levelling up in society to ensure no communities get left behind. This is why we announced our bold ambition for England to be Smokefree by 2030 because we want to continue to address the harms from smoking. As part of this commitment, we have announced the publication of a new Tobacco Control Plan which will set out our roadmap to achieving this challenging ambition. The Plan is due to be published in Summer 2021.
