Smoking ban for Falkirk council staff on video calls and in their cars

Smoking while on camera in virtual meetings will be forbidden for Falkirk Council staff - even if they are in their own homes.

Staff will also be told that they should not be smoking in their own cars when they are on council business.

The new rules were agreed by members of Falkirk Council's executive on Tuesday, as they agreed to update the council's smoke-free policy.
