Shogun Posted April 1, 2007 #3 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Hi There, When raised in paliment it was made clear that they wanted ships included, however non Uk flagged ships are awaiting a clear ruling, P & O have stated they expect it to have an effect on them since they are operating out of England. But do not say what will happen. yours Shogun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenR_UK Posted April 2, 2007 #4 Share Posted April 2, 2007 This has been discussed on Cunard board, ending with the posting of a link to a bill a MP is trying to bring in specificially for cruise ships - here is the link to the thread (as all smoking threads, I am sure it gets a bit 'nasty' at times - ignore those bits:D ) http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=484579&highlight=smoking It seems any legislation is only operating in UK waters though, so probably not worth worrying about either way:) Karen Didn't realise the thread was so long - for anyone who wants to bypass the rest, here some links to reports about the bill From the Times "Smoking ban extended to boats" http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/new...cle1415370.ece and http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/tm...name_page.html http://www.gnn.gov.uk/Content/Detail...7&NewsAreaID=2 http://uk.news.yahoo.com/20022007/32...hit-ships.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
