Plan to Make Wales Smoke-Free by 2030

Wales plans to become a smoke-free country within eight years by implementing anti-smoking programs and cracking down on illegal tobacco sales.

According to reports, the Welsh government has recently formulated a plan to make Wales a smoke-free country in the next eight years.

The established goal of this plan is to have no more than 5% of adult population in Wales actively smoking by 2030. The plan includes implementing smoking cessation programs, exploring the use of e-cigarettes as a means of quitting smoking, and increasing efforts to combat the illegal tobacco market in Wales.
