In 2016, smoking near places of religion (Mosques), places of education, facilities pertaining to health or sports, processing/manufacturing plants, all forms of public transport, and charity institutions was banned. The new ban also clarified that smoking is not allowed in private or public governmental facilities. The decree from the Kingdom also urged bodies of government at all levels to make as great an effort as possible to prevent as much smoking as possible, including banning the farming and processing of tobacco.
