On 6 October 2010, peers welcomed changes introduced by Treasury minister Lord Sassoon to the Terrorist Asset Freezing Bill that would mean that the assets of aperson can be permanently frozen only if the Treasury "believe" rather than "suspect" that they are engaged in terrorism.
Jo Butcher, the National Children's Bureau's programme director of health and wellbeing, welcomed the ban and said a person's lifetime smoking or non-smoking behaviour was "heavily influenced" by decisions in their adolescence.
