The smoking ban will be implemented across England on Sunday 1st July 2007. This means that all indoor areas of your Union will be non-smoking; any smoking in the venues will be restricted to specific outdoor areas. We currently sell cigarettes in one of the Union shops, most Union bars and our nightclubs, but we are now looking at the possibility of stopping the sale of all tobacco products along with the smoking ban.  However, before we take any action on this we want to know what you think.It would be appreciated if you could take a couple of minutes to complete a few questions and feedback your thoughts. Please submit your feedback by Monday 19th March 2007; your response will be anonymous.Click on this link to complete a few quick questions: Smoking Questionnaire
