Darbees Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Here's a quote from Sky News today about smoking ban in Wales which started yesterday Landlords and managers who do not display adequate no-smoking signs will be fined £200. They will face a fine of up to £2,500 if they allow people to smoke on their premises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuteWitness Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I'm looking forward to going out and not smelling of smoke when i get home but i don't think they should issue fines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom3t0 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I would think it's an empty threat, it's a maximum penalty. is there a fine for smoking a spliff in pub/peace gardens/bus station etc. ive been caught but they just say "don't do it again" like when half the people in your queue at the bus station light up or in a non smoking pub etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darbees Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I don't think it's going to be a problem. Lot of big talk from people who say they will defy it but I don't think they will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimsid2000 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 they really believe that every time someone says "i forgot it was none smoking" that they did. thinking about this, do people who suffer from alzehimers have to pay the fine when then ban comes in? how will they remember such a silly law Don't be so pathetic. Even people like you whose minds are shot to buggery due to years of drug abuse will be expected to obey the law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom3t0 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 if a person flouts the ban and is attacked by a crazy drunk who would get the biggest fine? would it be smoker £50 and violent drunk £43 court costs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
