Main Results:

  • £60 million allocated over three years for smoking cessation services.
  • Current year's funding prioritizes health action zones with limited success.
  • Nicotine replacement patches are more expensive than the amount many smokers spend on cigarettes.

Conclusions:

  • Increased investment aims to improve smoking cessation outcomes.
  • Targeted funding addresses regional disparities in cessation progress.
  • The high cost of nicotine replacement therapy may present a barrier to access for some smokers.
