Smoking in places where others are present should be stopped by introducing No Smoking Legislation and creating Smoke Free Zones.

Additional Information

There is overwhelming evidence of the damaging effects smoking has on all of us. All adults, children and the elderly are effected by secondary or passive smoking. There are numerous articles, reports and recommendations released by leading specialists in this field.Government need to act sooner rather than latter on this extremely important issue. It affects each and everyone of us and shortens life, ruins peoples health and is totally unacceptable for the vast majority of our UK citizens.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.

We cannot accept duplicate petitions. We think this petition is similar to yours:
