2 Govt agencies to ban smoking


Two government agencies in Guyana are agreeing to ban smoking in the workplace as the South American country encourages smoke-free zones.

The Guyana Revenue Authority promises that all its employees on duty will comply. Commissioner General Khurshid Sattaur said Friday that he hopes visitors will do so as well.

The government operated Guyana Water Inc. adopted the same policy earlier this week.

The government said 70 businesses also have become smoke-free.

Smoking in Guyana is already banned at schools and health facilities.
