New Zealand has passed its world first anti-smoking legislation that rises the smoking age to ban those aged 14 and under from ever being able to legally buy cigarettes.

A success today for the Action on Smoking and Health group, who has campaigned to stop the harm caused by cigarettes for more than 40 years.

Robert Beaglehole Chair at ASH told 6PR Breakfast hosts Millsy and Karl that smoking rates in New Zealand for adults and youths are already at record lows.
