More Fife life..


Readers may recall Mr Smith's post from yesterday highlighting the proposal from Councillor Alex Rowley, "Opposition Leader" on Fife Council, in which he suggested the Council should toughen up its approach on smokers lighting up outside pubs.

Mr Smith couldn't help but notice the irony of a story in the Dundee Courier which reports that a Fife Council employee has had his fine for smoking in a Fife Council vehicle quashed because the Council hadn't complied with the law by putting up the proper signage in the vehicle involved. Perhaps Mr Rowley should be writing another letter to Fife Council's Chief Executive to make sure that they are complying with their current legal responsibilities before proposing going even further than the smoking ban requires.

Oh, and Mr Smith would like to know if Fife Council has now been fined, by its own enforcers, for not complying with the law on smoking, which it is meant to be enforcing on everyone else?
