Ban artificial synthetic fragrances in indoor public places & workplaces

Petition Details

The Health Act of 2006, Part 1 Smoking, Chapter 1 Smoke-Free Premises Places and Vehicles sets out prohibitions on smoking. We want this section of the law to be extended to include room fragrance products that contain laboratory produced artificial synthetic fragrances, scents and parfums.

Additional Information

There are academic articles that have found that synthetic fragrances may be associated with certain health issues:
