Campaign
groups and anti smoking lobbyists welcomed the
governments announcement that the legal age for
smoking will increase from the current 16 to 18 from
October 2007.
For some
observers the changes do not go far enough because
unlike purchasing alcohol, it is not a criminal
offence to buy cigarettes. There remains a
considerable problem with the lack of control over
vending machines.
