Lucy Powell defended potential measures to ban smoking in pub gardens, saying a smoke-free country would benefit the economy and the NHS.

The government is 'not attacking the hospitality industry' with proposed plans to ban smoking in pub gardens, a cabinet minister has insisted. Lucy Powell told Sky News' Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips that Labour wants to create a 'smoke-free country' and measures to achieve this will be done 'in consultation' with businesses that could be affected.

Sir Keir said the ban could include pub gardens, outdoor restaurants and outside sports venues, hospitals, nightclubs and some small parks.
