Banning smoking in cars with children present could be a step closer in Northern Ireland. MLAs have voted in favour of introducing a ban. So is it a good move or just a case of Stormont sticking it's nose into people's private lives? The measures were proposed by Sinn Féin as amendments to the Health Bill. The SDLP also supports a ban, their health spokesperson is Fearghal McKinney. Dave Atherton is from Freedom to Choose which campaigns for smokers rights.
