HC Deb 19 July 1993 vol 229 c41W
34. Mr. Sheerman

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster if he will introduce a charter for non-smokers in respect of protection from the effects of passive smoking in public places.

Mr. David Davis

No. The Government have already published a detailed code of practice on smoking in public places, with the express intention of protecting nonsmoking members of the public. It is our aim to have at least 80 per cent. of public places covered by effective non-smoking policies by 1994.
