Gareth Thomas MP From Harrow, For Harrow
In 2003, I introduced a Private Members Bill to ban smoking in cafes and restaurants – today, research from the University of Stirling has found a reduction in over 97% of our exposure to second-hand smoke. We quickly forget the prevalence of second-hand smoke in our restaurants, cafes and public places, only 15 years ago. I’m proud to have played my part in this important debate.
