The Legal officer at the Uganda National Health Consumers Organization Moses Talibita says although the law is in place there is little or no deliberate effort to protect the public from the dangers of second hand smoke.

The same law makes it criminal to buy a stick of cigarette so that it is hard for children to access or afford it.

It is also now illegal for a person below the age of 21 to access cigarettes although according to the Constitution of Uganda, 18 years is the recognised age for an adult.
