New York ban on smoking in parks and plazas starts tomorrow

New York extends smoking ban to parks, beaches and plazas.

Forest's response to the ban, to be introduced tomorrow, can be found on our website: Forest slams New York ban on beaches, parks and plazas.

I also spoke to a BBC journalist who was writing a piece about the extension of the New York smoking ban to outside areas. Gave him lots of quotes. In the event he used one word, "ludicrous", to sum up my response.
