The public are largely supportive of government public health interventions
Nearly three-quarters (73%) of the public support extending the indoor smoking ban to specific outside spaces to protect children and vulnerable people, including playgrounds, outside schools and hospitals. This is followed by introducing a tax on organisation that produce foods high in sugar or salt, with some of the revenue used to fund fresh fruit and vegetables for low income families (62% support) and reducing the number of retailers with licenses to sell tobacco to limit tobacco availability (61% support).
