Deputy Richard Bruton asked the Minister for Finance if he is aware that the Finance Act 1995 prevents retailers from setting a margin on the sale of tobacco, as they can on every other product, instead, they are obliged to sell product at the price set by the tobacco companies; and whether he has considered allowing a higher price be set even if he is unwilling to allow any discounting from the RRP.
