    England targeting a “smoke-free generation” by 2022

    The plan is to cut smoking rates among adults to 12% or under by 2022, from 15.5% at present. Smoking among 15-year-olds should also drop from 8% to 3%

    England can become “smoke free”, ministers have said, as they announced plans to cut the number of smokers. Unveiling its new Tobacco Control Plan, the UK Government set out a range of targets aimed at adult smokers, teenagers and pregnant women.
