Argentinian City Implements Strict Smoking Ban in Public Areas
Mendoza City Council tightens smoking restrictions in public areas, including parks and schools, to protect citizens' health.

According to a report by Mdzol on April 25, the City Council of Mendosa, Argentina recently made a significant adjustment to the "Citizen's Code of Conduct" to strictly limit smoking in public places. The City Council has clearly stipulated that smoking will be prohibited in many public places such as parks, squares, pedestrian streets, and educational institutions.

 

The main content of this amendment is the prohibition of smoking or using e-cigarettes and other vaping devices in public places, especially areas with children's play areas, beaches, fitness tracks, and sports activity areas. Additionally, according to the newly revised Article 49 clause, smoking is also banned in children's entertainment areas, areas for children and adults seeking medical treatment, and nursing homes that are open all day.

 

In order to ensure the implementation of the new regulations, the city government will set up information signs in designated smoke-free zones and will collaborate with the education department.
