However, to stay longer than three months, EU citizens newly arrived in this transitional period will need to apply for European Temporary Leave to Remain, which, subject to identity and criminality checks, will mean that they can remain here, including to work or study, for a further 36 months.</p><p>In either scenario, there will be no minimum salary threshold for those coming here to work.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 13/02/2019 16:44:54 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes

The Government’s advice remains that the best thing a smoker can do is to quit and quit for good. Any smokers wanting to quit, with or without the help of products available on the market, are four times more likely to stop smoking and quit for good with the personalised support offered by local stop smoking services.</p><p> </p><p>The National Centre for Stop Smoking Services has issued guidance on offering advice to those wanting to use e-cigarettes as part of their quit attempts and encouraged local stop smoking services to be open to their use.</p><p> </p><p>The Government recognises that some people have found e-cigarettes helpful in quitting smoking and that they are considerably less harmful than continuing to smoke. The forthcoming tobacco control plan will consider the role of e-cigarettes and other harm reduction products in further reducing the prevalence of smoking in England.</p><p> </p><p>The Department has no current plans to review the restrictions on advertising for tobacco products.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Battersea answering member printed Jane Ellison grouped question UIN 42180 42181 question first answered 12/07/2016 14:54:44 answering member 3918 label Biography information for Jane Ellison
