Strengthening the laws around smoking in public in Wales will further protect non-smokers from second-hand smoke and de-normalise smoking for children and young people.
While most hospitals already have no smoking policies in their grounds, it is currently difficult for staff to enforce this.
Health Secretary, Vaughan Gething, has visited the maternity unit at Glan Clwyd Hospital, where staff told him they had received complaints from mothers about people smoking outside the hospital when they enter and leave with their young babies.
The Hospital Management Team has also received complaints about people smoking at the newly refurbished main entrance and at other entrances across the site.
