Netherlands: Minister firm on cafe smoking ban

DutchNews.ml

Thursday 07 Jun 2007

---
Health minister Ab Klink is sticking firm to earlier pledges to
introduce a total ban on smoking in cafés, bars and restaurants by July
2008. The cabinet is due to discuss the ban on Friday.

The hospitality lobby group Horeca Nederland wants the ban to be
introduced in phases, arguing that cafés and discos are not yet ready
for a total ban.

Holland's hundreds of coffee shops, where people can buy small amounts
of cannabis, would also be covered by the ban. A majority of MPs said in
March they did not support a ban in coffee shops because they were
places people deliberately went to smoke.

Klink suggested that cafés could set up separate smoking rooms without
waitress service where people could smoke if they wished.
