The motion

That the Parliament notes that

Wednesday 14 March 2012 is National No Smoking Day; considers that smoking is still an enormous issue for Scotland and that any such incentives to discourage people from smoking should be welcomed; welcomes the proposed further pilot in Glasgow to specifically tackle smoking during pregnancy following the success of the first pilot in Dundee; further recognises that the health inequalities in smoking are still very significant, with over 40% of people in the most deprived communities still smoking, and hopes that, on this no smoking day, many more will take the opportunity to stop smoking.
