The intention of the department headed by Mónica García is to “continue increasing these emission-free spaces and thus ensure that a non-smoking person can carry out their daily life without being exposed.

This is a preliminary draft in which scientific societies and entities related to the field of smoking have participated and which has yet to be submitted to the judgment of the general directors of Public Health, but in it the ministry makes clear it is committed to reducing the prevalence of tobacco consumption and advancing actions “in the face of the challenge of emerging products.”
