On 1 July 2007 England will go SMOKEFREE!
WHICH PLACES WILL BE SMOKEFREE?
Nearly all enclosed and substantially enclosed public places and
workplaces in the country will become smokefree. These will include
offices, factories, shops, pubs, bars, public transport and work vehicles
that are used by more than one person.
The law will also mean that indoor smoking rooms will no longer be
allowed. So anyone wishing to smoke will have to go outside instead.

SHOWING YOU’RE SMOKEFREE
From 1 July when your business goes smokefree, you will need to
display the legally required signs at entrances to your premises. And
company vehicles used by more than one person will be required to have
no smoking signs.
No-smoking signs in smokefree premises
The regulations will require all smokefree premises to display a no-smoking sign in a
prominent position at each entrance that:
a. is the equivalent of A5 in area,
b. displays the international no-smoking symbol in colour, a minimum of 70mm in
diameter, and
c. carries the words in characters that can be easily read:
“No smoking. It is against the law to smoke in these premises”.
On the sign, the words “these premises” may be changed to refer to the particular premises
where the sign is displayed, for example “this hotel” or “this NHS clinic”.
The regulations also set out that a no-smoking sign that simply displays the international nosmoking
symbol in colour, a minimum of 70mm in diameter is the minimum requirement at
entrances to smokefree premises which:
a. are for staff only (on the basis that the premises displays at least one A5-
sized sign with words, as set out above), or
b. are located within other smokefree premises (for example, a shop within an
indoor shopping centre).

No-smoking signs in smokefree vehicles
The regulations will require any person with management responsibilities for a smokefree
vehicle to have legal duties to display a no-smoking sign in each enclosed compartment that
can accommodate people. These no-smoking signs must simply display the international nosmoking
symbol in colour, a minimum of 70mm in diameter.
