Legal challenge to the display ban

You thought it had been dropped?

Deborah Arnott seems to have done:
Deborah Arnott, chief executive of Action on Smoking and Health, said: "What a wonderful Christmas present from the tobacco industry. This will bring festive cheer to all those working to prevent children and young people from taking up smoking."
Seems as if someone is already trying to rub Scotland off the map!
The ban on the display of tobacco products in large stores could be delayed for as long as three years due to legal wrangles with tobacco manufacturers, the Scottish Government has admitted.
Good that they didn't ruin Christmas for the ban champions in Scotland, anyway.
