Editor's Notes
- There is framework of steps that must be achieved by 2015 in order achieve Smokefree Aotearoa 2025 - where less than 5% population smoke āNext Stepsā .. This requires responsibility and accountability to be shared between Government The Health Services Those working in tobacco control such as Can Soc/ PHUs Communities - here we would cite the role of local authorities as critical 2015 is the first benchmark against which we will assess progress For communities - the built environment largely the responsibility of local authorities need to reflect positive SF role models and support SF lifestyles To date around half our councils have taken steps to promote playgrounds, parks , sports grounds ā green space . Others have included beaches and council run events. We need to see remaining council take these steps. For those who have already done so, we need to see ānext stepsā emulating progress made in Australia, where acceptability for policies covering al fresco dining for example is encouraging
- This is our overview of how these ānext stepsā might look For an organisation like the Cancer Society, an NGO such steps could easily be incorporated into itās national health promotion strategy, developed by the divisions making up the Cancer Society. This has the potential to gain wide public attention over coming years [ consider previous campaigns such as Out of Sight Out of Mind]The advantage in this broad canvas is that such a strategy could be developed regionally/locally depending on local authority needs as well as with regard to key partner agencies such as PHUs. This would certainly apply to my own area where all work is collaborative In summary we suggest the need to see a majority of councils adopt greenspace policies by 2013 - not far away but a reasonable goal based on traction we have seen in Canterbury [ 11 /12 councils likely to do so by end of 2012] as well as considerable progress made in other regions If we consider that most policies set review dates, then by 2015 those working with councils should be in a position to support reviews with well designed evaluation. For health promoters, evaluation is part of professional accountability . For councils, reviews are similarly part of good policy management. As a leading NGO, the Cancer Society [and partners] need to challenge councils to make the next move. By 2015 we consider it is reasonable to see half of our councils having extended existing policies or introduced new ones to cover outdoor dining areas. By doing so they will address the long standing issue of environmental tobacco smoke amongst diners [ much debate around this after bars/restaurants went SF in 2004]Beyond the benchmark of 2015 we need to see remaining councils picking up the issue but realistically by 2020 we envisage the need to see SF outoor areas as a national policy issue- for example as part of local authority monitoring /accountabilty. Certainly by 2020 we would expect Cancer Society national strategy being one of holding various agencies [ shown on previous slide] to account / publically recognising those for their contribution . SF councils adopting SF dining by 2015 should be profiled as should those who go further with creation of SF public spaces / shopping malls for example . 2020 is a good second benchmark year ā offering 5 more years to address gaps / assess strategies
