Is smoking banned in alfresco dining areas?

The Smoke-free Environment Act 2000 does not ban smoking in outdoor dining areas. Smoking bans only apply to enclosed public areas. However some venues may voluntarily choose to adopt a non-smoking policy in their outdoor areas. Others may choose to make half their outdoor dining area non-smoking. It is suggested that licensees contact their local council to check if there are any no-smoking by-laws in their local government area in regard to outdoor alfresco dining areas.
