New Zealand policy experts’ appraisal of interventions to reduce smoking in young adults: a qualitative investigation by Janet Hoek, Heather Gifford, Jude Ball, El Shadan Tautolo

“…Exceptions were social marketing campaigns and extending smoke-free regulations to include outdoor areas of cafes and bars, which participants saw as politically feasible and likely to be effective.Conclusions Our findings suggest the merit of an approach that combines social marketing with regulation that makes accessing and using tobacco less convenient for young adults; however, political barriers may limit the regulatory options available in the short term. Strategies to support self-determination and address the underlying causes of smoking in young people warrant further investigation. …”
