Written Reply to Parliamentary Question on Designation of More No Smoking Zones by Ms Grace Fu, Minister for Sustainability and the Environment

Question:

To ask the Minister for Sustainability and the Environment whether the Ministry is considering designating more areas as “No Smoking Zones”.

Answer:

1 In 2019, the National Environment Agency (NEA) designated Orchard Road as a No Smoking Zone. In 2024, the Orchard Road No Smoking Zone was expanded to cover additional areas near Somerset Road and Exeter Road. As the last expansion took place only last year, NEA currently does not have any plans to designate more areas as “No Smoking Zones”.
