Poll: Is it time to ban smoking in public?
Earlier this month the Upper Hutt City Counci voted to extend its existing ban on smoking in public.
The ban covers all parks, reserves and sports grounds, as well as bus stations and bus stops.
Mayor Wayne Guppy said the Council wanted the city’s public spaces to be healthy environments for its children and young people to play in and enjoy.
A number of councils in the region have similar bans. Is it time to become totally smokefree and ban smoking in all public areas?
-
62.7% Should there be a total ban on smoking in public
-
37.3% No the current rules are tough enough
