SUBMISSION BY JOANNE COATES

I would like to see smoking prohibited in all public places including restaurants and bars.

I used to work in bars part-time to help fund my studies, and being a non-smoker, didn't find it fair that I had to inhale the smoke from peoples

cigarettes.

It also left a disgusting smell in my hair and on my clothes.

Now, I like to socialise in restaurants and pubs, and although it is my choice to enter them, it is not my choice to have to inhale the smoke of others. I think

it is very unpleasant for non-smokers to be in a smoky atmosphere.

Thanks,

Joanne Coates
