Introduction
From 1 July 2007, virtually all enclosed public places and workplaces in England became smokefree. A smokefree England will ensure a healthier environment, so everyone can socialise, relax, travel, shop and work free from secondhand smoke.
Smokefree legislation is set out in Part 1 of the Health Act that was passed by Parliament in 2006. The Act sets out the broad provisions for smokefree legislation, and also provides a number of legal powers to enable the more detailed aspects of smokefree legislation to be dealt with in smokefree regulations.
