'Ban public smoking' - Pressure mounts against lighting up

Jamaica Gleaner News "A powerful anti-drug lobby has added its voice to the chorus for a ban on lighting up in public spaces, even as smokers wait for a few more hours to know how much more they will pay for cigarettes.
The call came from Victor Roach, president of the International Commis-sion for the Prevention of Alcoholism and Drug Dependency (ICPA) - Caribbean Bloc.
'I call upon the govern-ments of the region to introduce laws to ban smoking in public buildings and also to prevent young people from being able to purchase alcohol and tobacco as a practice,' said Roach."
