Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Smoking is a health hazard for any public servant or any person, for that matter. It is a health hazard. Yet all other public servants are allowed to smoke on government premises. It’s been years since anybody has been allowed to smoke inside. Smoking inside is not the issue. The issue is why can’t corrections officers smoke on the property outdoors?
