Age To Buy Cigarettes In England Should Rise Every Year, Review Says
The legal age of sale for cigarettes in England should be raised by one year every year until eventually no one can buy tobacco products, a government-commissioned review recommended on Thursday.
Progressively increasing the minimum age from 18 was one of 15 interventions recommended in the review ordered by health minister Sajid Javid to help meet a target to be ‘smokefree’ by 2030. Smokefree is defined as 5% smoking prevalence or less in England.
