premise: The effects of smoking have been known for a very long time. The harmful and poisonous chemicals inside tobacco all have negative effects. If an individual smokes long-term they are more likely to suffer from the following: cancer, heart disease, blockage of vessels and so on. Since the 1st of July 2007, the UK government brought out new legislation which prohibited individuals from smoking in public places such as clubs, bars, pubs and restaurants. Many organisations have now incorporated a no smoking policy within staff and customer areas. In order to advertise this policy, posters and pamphlets have been specifically put in staff canteens and customer waiting rooms. Many individuals have put forward their support, either by not smoking in these buildings, or by quitting smoking all together. However, a minority feel that this is an erosion of their freedom of choice.
hypothesis: Due to the legislation enforced by the government many organisations now have a no smoking policy
