A newsletter received today from Switzerland Tourism says -
(From 11th December) the public transport in the whole of Switzerland has
been declared a smoke free environment. Smoking is therefore no longer
permitted on any trains, buses, boats and closed stations buildings.
How many years before Belgium follows suit?

I haven't seen passengers smoking, some drivers (bus and train), and
people on the platform

Belgium is already there (in law) since 01/01/2004.
But 2 problems remain, drivers that continue to smoke whilst doing
their job, and people smoking on platforms whilst waiting for transport.
