Their use is increasing rapidly and the number of UK smokers using electronic cigarettes in their last quit attempt recently overtook the number using over-the-counter medically licensed nicotine containing products such as nicotine patches and gum.

Whoops. I see big Pharma getting very cross right now.

Barring organisational issues this could be the good news that Parliamentarians have asked for more notice / a better slot, hence there being decent interest in attending the briefing
