Well done Caerphilly council for winning this week's Prats of The Week Award.
The council has won the award for its ludicrous ban on staff using electronic cigarettes in Caerphilly council-owned buildings and vehicles.
The council claims that the policy strengthened its efforts to make its premises a healthy and smoke-free work environment for employees and visitors.
All very well if e fags are dangerous to third parties, they are not!
Also the ban does not cover members of the public who visit council premises.
Christine Forehead, cabinet
member for human resources and governance, is quoted by the BBC:
The above diatribe against smoking has nothing whatsoever to do with e fags."As a council we recognise that smoking is the single most preventable cause of illness, premature death and health inequality throughout the United Kingdom.Exposure to second-hand smoke is also a cause of ill health and it is estimated to contribute to around 600,000 deaths globally a year.
This policy strengthens our efforts to make council premises a healthy, smoke-free work environment for employees and visitors."
