There is no provision in smoke-free legislation for offences to result in a review of a pub’s licence. We believe the penalties described in the regulations are a sufficient deterrent, and we expect that pubs and other hospitality venues will want to comply with the legislation to make their premises a better and more healthy place to visit and work.
