He knows if you're naughty or nice, and if you are smoking

"....The move is the latest part of the Scottish Executive's ban on smoking in public places, which will come into force on 26 March next year.

"Ministers have told councils, health boards and social work departments that they should compile a "smokers' map" of Scotland, focusing on those who regularly receive visits from officials and carers. This would identify individual households where a smoker is resident.

"The smokers would then be sent letters asking them not to smoke for one hour before a council worker or health worker called round. Public bodies have also been advised to use the smokers' map to ensure that any workers who suffer from breathing problems are kept away from the homes of smokers. ..."

Ah yes, the major sin of the PC, Smoking....
