Tánaiste Micheál Martin, who introduced the workplace smoking ban in 2004, is not in favour of the plan, a spokesperson has confirmed to the Irish Mirror
Ireland looks unlikely to pursue the English Government’s proposal to ban smoking in outdoor pubs and restaurants.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer confirmed last week that he would back proposals to ban smoking in outdoor hospitality areas, stadiums, children’s parks and areas near hospitals and universities. He told Channel 4 News he was “supportive” of the proposals, stating that he wants Britain to become a “smoke-free environment”.
“The Tánaiste believes in an evidence-based approach to implementing public health measures,” they said.
