Why is NZ slow to ban smoking in cars with kids?

From The Panel, 4:26 pm on 28 January 2020

A survey has linked England's 2015 ban on smoking in cars carrying children to a 72 percent fall in the number of teens exposed to second-hand tobacco smoke. A similar law was announced for New Zealand last February, but it has not yet been implemented.

Deborah Hart, director of Action on Smoking and Health, discusses why it's taking so long to pass the legislation.
