    Yes you can but they can ask you not to smoke if a council worker comes to your home. I live in a council flat and can smoke in my flat but not in any of the communal areas eg hall way.

    Of course you can. You actually an do almost anything but you have to have permission for things like a greenhouse & stuff like that.

    If you had a private property you may not be allowed to smoke.

    I know because I have lived in private accommodation & now living in council property

    nicely achieved, Puddleduck for keeping off the fags!!! it is totally complicated or perhaps after years I nevertheless experience that i'd like to illuminate. And if day after today they introduced that cigs have been okay to smoke then i'd start up back on the instant...yet i don't be conscious of no remember if the tax from the sale of cigarettes can help save the NHS ticking. If that replaced into the case then why would the government spend quite some funds to motivate human beings who smoke to end? would they somewhat need to unfastened that variety of sales for good? i've got heard that the money they assemble from the taxes on ciggies bypass to anti-smoking campaigns and none of that money bypass to the NHS or to handle human beings who smoke. There are additionally anti-smoking charities and that i'm particular they get a extensive chew of this money. Nicorette products could be won unfastened from the NHS besides. So why would they bypass into this super expenditure just to shoot themselves interior the foot with the aid of loosing assorted taxes from human beings who smoke?

    You can, but if the council send and worker round (fixing something etc) you will be politely asked to try and refrain from smoking in their presence.
