Rejected petition Ban Smoking in Parks and Town Centres

More details

I would like the government to introduce a smoking ban in town centres and town parks.

Or maybe give local authorities the power to impose bans in their town centres whether they chose too or not.

Passive smoking is still a risk to people, and smoking outside shops in town centres or in parks or next to cash points is damaging people's health.
