To ask the Scottish Government when it will publish a response to the results of the Prohibiting smoking outside hospital buildings: consultation.
The consultation analysis on prohibiting smoking outside hospital buildings was published in June 2020. This independent analysis showed widespread public support for the proposals to introduce a 15 metre smoke-free perimeter around hospital buildings.
The Scottish Government intends to put the proposals, supported by the public consultation, to the Scottish Parliament in early 2022.
