NI health minister hails success of smoking ban
A health minister said today he was keeping an open mind on the introduction of a full smoking ban in Northern Ireland by 2007.
Northern Ireland health minister Shaun Woodward, an ex-smoker, visited Doheny and Nesbitt’s pub in Dublin, a traditional establishment which was once famous for its “pint and a smoke” customers before the Irish smoking ban came in March 2004.
