Among the reforms to the Tobacco Act that came into effect on Tuesday 1 August 2017 is a requirement that smoking be prohibited within 10 metres of a food stall or food vendor at organised outdoor events.

To address this requirement and to ensure that we continue to provide a safe working environment for staff and patrons the existing smoke-free zone around the building have been expanded to include the entire fenced area of the Belmont Market.

This means that people who wish to smoke must now do so beyond the entry gates away from the food vendors market stalls playground and buildings.
