Towards a Smoke Free Wales A Breath of Fresh Air – Towards a Smoke Free Wales 20 MARCH 2007 THE FUTURE INNS, CARDIFF Cardiff Bay, Hemingway Road, Cardiff, CF10 4JY In association with A Breath of Fresh Air – Towards a Smoke Free Wales WELCOME & INTRODUCTION The Wales Centre for Health in association with the Welsh Assembly Government and the Welsh Local Government Association is pleased to welcome you to ‘A Breath of Fresh Air – Towards a Smoke Free Wales’. The event will provide an opportunity to look forward to the imminent introduction of the ban on smoking in enclosed public places in Wales, which comes into effect on the 2nd April. This is widely recognised as a key piece of recent public health legislation which will have a dramatic impact on the health of the Welsh population. It is estimated that at least 400 lives will be saved each year in Wales as a result of the introduction of the new legislation. THE SMOKING BAN The smoking ban for Wales comes into effect on the 2 April 2007 with the aim of preventing diseases and deaths caused by second-hand smoke. Wales will follow the Republic of Ireland and Scotland in introducing such legislation. The new ban will apply to ‘enclosed’ or ‘substantially enclosed’ public spaces, including workplaces. The smoking ban reflects recognition on the part of the National Assembly for Wales of the need to protect workers and the public from the harmful effects of second-hand smoke. In anticipation of the forthcoming ban a number of measures have been taken to prepare both businesses and individuals. These have included: the development of a website, ‘Smoking Ban Wales’ (www.smokingbanwales.co.uk); TV & radio campaign; pre-ban adverts; information leaflets for households and guidance for businesses. Training and enforcement guidance have been provided for local government enforcement officers. Steps have also been taken to enable smoking cessation services to deal with increased demand resulting from the ban. MEETING PARTNERS The Wales Centre for Health The Wales Centre for Health (WCfH) is an Assembly Sponsored Public Body established to lead improvements in the nation’s health and well-being by advocating on health issues, engaging with the public and communities, and speaking independently on health, free from corporate or economic interests. Launched in April 2005, the WCfH features prominently in “Designed for Life”, the strategy for the NHS in Wales: “The Wales Centre for Health will become the hub of connected organisations concentrating on how professionals can drive quality improvements. It will provide an intelligence function, surveillance activity and contribute to the R&D agenda.” The WCfH has statutory responsibilities as set out in the Health (Wales) Act 2003, which include: • the development and maintenance of arrangements for making information about matters related to the protection and improvement of health in Wales available to the public • undertaking and commissioning research into such matters • the provision and development of training in such matters. The WCfH carries out these functions by engaging all organisations that have any potential contribution to improving health, and working in partnership with them. Mission Statement The WCfH has an independent, unique role in protecting and improving health and well being in Wales. It focuses on addressing inequalities, communicating independent information and advice, developing working networks and partnerships, contributing to training and education and driving quality improvements. The WCfH also provides an intelligence function, surveillance activity and contributes to the research, development and dissemination agenda. National Assembly for Wales In July 1997, the UK Government published a White Paper, A Voice for Wales, which outlined proposed devolution in Wales. These proposals were endorsed in the referendum of 18 September 1997. Parliament subsequently passed the Government of Wales Act 1998, which established the National Assembly for Wales. The National Assembly for Wales (Transfer of Functions) Order 1999 enabled the transfer of the devolved powers and responsibilities from the Secretary of State for Wales to the Assembly on 1 July 1999. The National Assembly has 60 Assembly Members (AMs) who are elected by the people of Wales. They meet in the debating chamber in Cardiff, the capital city of Wales. The Assembly is responsible for most public expenditure in Wales, and has powers to make a wide range of secondary legislation. The National Assembly does not have tax-raising powers. The National Assembly has delegated its executive powers to nine Cabinet Ministers who together form the Welsh Assembly Government. The Welsh Assembly Government is subject to democratic scrutiny by the National Assembly. Welsh Local Government Association The Welsh Local Government Association (WLGA) represents the interests of local government and promotes local democracy in Wales. It represents the 22 local authorities in Wales and the 4 police authorities, 3 fire and rescue authorities and 3 national park authorities are associate members. The WLGA’s primary purposes are to promote better local government and its reputation and to support authorities in the development of policies and priorities which will improve public services and democracy. Originally established in 1996 primarily as a policy development and representative body, the WLGA has since developed into an organisation that also leads on improvement and development, equalities, procurement, employment issues and hosts a range of partner bodies supporting local government.
