Spain enacts tough anti-smoking law
Spain on Sunday introduced an anti-smoking law that is likely to turn the country, the EU's fourth largest tobacco producer from a cigarette-friendly land abounding with smoky bars and restaurants, into one of Europe's most stringently smokeless.
The law prohibits lighting up in enclosed public places, although hotels are allowed to reserve 30 percent of their rooms for smokers. Outside, smoking it banned in open-air children's playgrounds and at access points to schools and hospitals. (AP)
