Where does the ban apply? Smoking is banned within 10 metres of in-use campsites and any public places such as picnic tables, toilet blocks, visitor information centres, and shelters. Signs have been put up in picnic areas to remind visitors about the rules. ______ Banning smoking ensures that visitors can enjoy fresh air in parks without being exposed to second-hand smoke. Smoking remains a significant cause of preventable death and disease in Australia. Smoke-free public places protect non-smokers from the bad health effects of passive smoke in public areas. Every year in Queensland 3,700 smokers die from smoking-related diseases. How is the ban enforced(执行)? There is strong community support for banning smoking in public places. This means most people follow the smoking ban and typically encourage others to do so. The ban is enforced by Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service rangers(护林员) as well as Queensland Health environmental health officers. These officers can provide advice about the smoking ban, issue warnings and on-the-spot fines and respond to possible breaches (违反). To report a possible breach call 137468. What penalties(处罚) might apply? Smokers who do not follow a warning to stop smoking in a smoke-free area can be issued with an on-the-spot fine. The highest penalty for someone breaching the ban is twenty penalty units, with an on-the-spot penalty of two penalty units. The current penalty unit amount is $121.90. This amount increases annually. For more information on current penalty amounts call 137468. Would you like to quit smoking?
