World No Tobacco Day

EDM number 1184 in 2002-03, proposed by Liam Fox on 12/05/2003.

That this House notes that 31st May is World No Tobacco Day; respects people's right not to be exposed to cigarette smoke if they do not want to be; believes that everyone should be able to work in a smoke-free environment, while recognising the difficulties that poses in some sectors - notable entertainment and hospitality; notes that the Health and Safety Executive has already looked into this issue and drafted an approved code of practice to address the problem; is disappointed that the Government has failed to publish the draft ACOP; and calls on the Government to do so immediately in order to facilitate a proper public scrutiny of the current legal position and to allow steps to be taken to ensure that people receive an appropriate level of protection from cigarette smoke in the workplace.

This motion has been signed by a total of 26 MPs.
