A brief comment on the extent of sub-national legislation:
Sub-national legislation can provide that specified places, in addition to those listed in the national legislation, are smoke free. The law gives the Minister of Health the authority to designate additional places as smoke free and this authority is delegated to Governors at the regional level.
The city of Alexandria has a sub-national smoke free law but it is not more stringent than national law.
