No Smoking Legislation
What No Smoking Signs Should I Use?
As from Sunday, 1 July 2007, it is now required by law that No Smoking are displayed in a prominent position at every entrance to smokefree premises.
Signs must:
- be a minimum of A5 in area (210mm x 148mm)
- display the International No Smoking symbol at least 70mm in diameter
- carry the following words in characters that can be easily read:
‘No smoking. It is against the law to smoke in these premises'.
Smokefree vehicles also need to display a No Smoking sign in each compartment of the vehicle in which people can be carried. This must show the international No Smoking symbol at least 70mm in diameter.
