GEG dropped due to constitutionality issue, not pressure from lobbyists, Dr Dzul tells Parliament

KUALA LUMPUR: Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad denies his Deputy's statement on lobbyists influencing the government's move to drop the Generational Endgame (GEG) provision from the anti-smoking bill last year.

He emphasised that the dismissal of the GEG provision was due to a constitutionality issue, not industry pressure.
