From today (1 March), all hospital grounds, school grounds, public playgrounds, and outdoor care settings for children in Wales will be required to be smoke-free.

In addition, over the next year and by 1 March 2022, smoking in bedrooms in hotels, guest houses will be phased out and self-contained holiday accommodation will be required to be smoke-free. Mental Health Units will also be required to phase out any smoking rooms by 1 September 2022.
