Naples Italy Bans Smoking Near Pregnant Women and Children
A great new law has been put into effect in Naples, Italy that prohibits smoking near pregnant women and children in public parks.
Now if we could just get pregnant women to stop smoking - we'd be all set!"We're not going to use a ruler to measure the distance between smokers and women or children," Deputy Mayor Gennaro Nasti told AFP.
"But it will be forbidden to smoke during open-air shows or under covered structures."
Violators will have to pay fines of between 27.50 and 500 euros (40 and 730 dollars), Nasti said, adding that police would enforce the law.
Smoking in public buildings has been illegal throughout Italy since January 2005.
