The Department of Health has reportedly claimed that smokers prosecuted for breaching the workplace smoking ban risk not being permitted entry to the US or Australia.
Reports this morning said a spokesman for the department said a conviction for breaching the ban could adversely affect a person’s chances of gaining entry to the US or Australia.
The spokesman reportedly said that a number of people were facing prosecution for breaching the ban, with their cases due to come before the courts in September.
