I think there is a need to formalise some of the voluntary bans that have appeared in recent years - on trains, in cinemas, and the like - but I would favour tough legislation forcing 'venue' owners to make proper provision of smoking and non-smoking areas over an outright ban. There's a lot you can do to control air-flow with modern air conditioning and the like.

Glad to se we agree on some parts of this then Towny
.
As I said earlier - people should have a choice, and landlords/owners should do what their clientele would prefer.
I no longer smoke, but I have no issues with sitting in a smokers area in a pub with my mates who still do, but my wife cannot take the smokey atmosphere, so I end up having to move between the two areas. Proper ventilation, such as I have experienced in other countries, would solve a lot of the issues. (IMO as always)
