Large shops banned from displaying cigarettes

Quote:
Tobacco has been banned from displays in shops as the latest anti-smoking law comes into effect in England.
The new rules mean all cigarettes and tobacco products will be kept hidden behind screens or under the counter in large shops and supermarkets.
Small shops will follow suit in 2015, allowing them more time to refit shelves and cabinets.
Smoking causes 80,000 preventable deaths each year and costs the NHS £5bn annually.

So from today supermarkets and other large shops will not be allowed to display tobacco products .Will it make any difference or will the kids be more curious as to what is hidden behind the big doors in the supermarket
