I don't hink we should be increasing the trading hours of the sale of tabacco products. If thr trading hours are to be increased, there should be a condition that during those extended hours the sale of tobacco is prohibited.
I live just off Oxford St, I smoked for over 20 years and have now been clean for nearly 10 years. Walking down oxford street in the afternoon is like smoking 10 cigarettes with all the outdoor smoking areas and people standing on the footpath smoking. I think it is a matter of time until one of us sues the council for allowing this level of exposure to passive smoking.
