title: Optimizing on smoke free legislation making the most of the opportunity.
abstract: Stop smoking service provision faces significant challenges in optimizing the opportunities raised through the smoke free legislation, which prohibits smoking in a public place. There are a number of innovations in service provision allowing a more tailored and flexible approach to stopping smoking, where the patient requirements are central. Innovations such as cut down then stop (CDTS), combination nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) use, and new drug therapy Champix all provide increased options for the smoker.
