A Final Note

When implementing a smokefree policy be clear about the issues:

  • It’s about going smokefree not banning smoking.

  • It’s about meeting the legal requirements

  • It’s about the secondhand smoke not the smoker.

  • It’s about improving health and reducing health inequalities.

And remember smokefree environments are:

  • Good for health.

  • Good for business/economy.

  • Popular with the overwhelming majority of the population.
