Western Australia’s smoking laws aim to protect children and adults from the harmful consequences of passive smoking and target the promotion of tobacco products. Food businesses, tobacco retail outlets and the general public should be aware of these smoking laws, include the following:
The City of Fremantle’s licensed outdoor dining areas (restaurants, hotels, cafes and food outlets) became smoke free in August 2008. This legislation helps to ensure the effects of second-hand smoke are reduced, and persons wishing to eat a meal in an alfresco area, can enjoy a smoke-free environment. The City of Fremantle was the first local government in Western Australia to adopt such legislation.
If you are a food business and would like to discuss these new smoking and outdoor dining requirements, then please contact our environmental health services team on 1300 MY FREO (1300 693 736) or email health@fremantle.wa.gov.au for more information.
If you are a proprietor requiring ‘no smoking’ stickers you can order them here.
