0 UK: The CEO of British Beer and Pub Association calls for total ban on smoking

The chief executive of the British Beer and Pub Association, Rob Hayward, called for a total smoking ban on January 23, arguing that an exemption for members' clubs would seriously damage the pub trade and lead to pub closures, according to The Independent News.

U.K. pubs, the British Medical Association and anti-smoking group ASH called for a proposed smoking ban to apply to private clubs as well as bars too.

U.K. Prime Minister Tony Blair has proposed measures that would ban smoking in restaurants and some bars from mid-2007. About a fifth of Labour lawmakers are objecting to exemptions to the ban.

At least 114,000 people in the U.K. die each year from smoking-related illnesses, accounting for a fifth of all deaths, and Blair's government estimates restrictions could save up to 3.8 billion pounds ($7 billion) by reducing sickness and death associated with smoking.

The brewing industry group joined forces with the health lobby to urge MPs to support clear legislation on smoke-free workplaces and to oppose any exemption for members' clubs in the forthcoming free vote on smoking in the Health Bill.

Mr Hayward shared a platform yesterday with Kevin Barron MP, the chairman of the Commons Health Select Committee, as well ...

Barley News

0 World: Barley production is to increase by 7% in 2006-2007

World barley production is forecast by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canda (AAFC) to increase by 7% to 145 million tonnes (Mt) in 2006-2007, rising for all major exporters except Australia. Total supply is expected to increase only slightly due to lower carry-in stocks.

World barley trade is forecast to increase by 3% to 17.5 Mt in 2006-2007. World carry-out stocks are expected to increase by 4%. As a result, world prices are projected to decrease slightly for feed barley and be similar to 2005-2006 for malting barley.


2 Ukraine: More than half of winter barley crops to be in good and fair condition

According to Agrarian Policy Ministry of Ukraine's data of January 19, 23 % of winter barley crops in Ukraine (120,700 hectares) were in good ...
