The Austrian government plans to expand the country's smoking ban in 2023 to include "more outdoor public places," according to a report by The Local.
A new amendment to the Tobacco and Non-Smokers Protection Act will add public places, such as "children's playgrounds and areas for young people's recreational activities", to the list of smoking prohibited areas. The amendment will also regulate the increasingly popular use of nicotine pouches among young people.
In 2019, a ban on indoor smoking was implemented, including in bars and restaurants.
The newly revised amendments will undergo review in early 2023.
