这篇文章的目的是描述的过程中批准的意大利禁烟令，颁布于2005年。方法是对2000 - 2005年拟议和批准的立法以及1998-2008年意大利报纸上发表的文章进行审查。这一进程中的有利因素包括：连续两任卫生部长的领导，他们都是医生，在2000-2002年期间四次提出该法案;该法案作为公共行政法案的修正案反复提出并最终获得批准，使禁令得以及时获得批准;以及2003年法规中严格的空气质量标准，使得建造吸烟室不切实际，而且成本过高。这一进程中的限制因素包括：批准吸烟室条例拖延了6个月;批准规定业主有责任在招待场所执行禁烟令的条例拖延了1.5年，以及2005年8月采取的法律的行动将执法责任移交给警方。在1998-2008年发表的808篇关于吸烟的文章中，有83%是在2000-2005年政策制定过程中发表的。虽然新闻界对接待部门提出的问题给予了相当大的关注，但该法案及其条例的漫长立法过程也刺激了对烟草控制问题的报道。
The objective of this article is to describe the process of approval of the Italian smoking ban, enacted in 2005. The method is to conduct a review of proposed and approved legislation 20002005, and of articles published in Italian newspapers, 1998-2008. Enabling factors in the process were: the leadership of two consecutive Health Ministers, both physicians, who introduced the bill four times between 2000-2002; the repeated presentation and final approval of the bill as an amendment within a bill on public administration which enabled timely approval of the ban; and the stringent air quality standards in the 2003 regulation that made building smoking rooms impracticable and prohibitively expensive. Limiting factors in the process were: the 6-month delay in approving the regulation on smoking rooms; the 1.5-year delay in approving the regulation establishing owners' responsibility for enforcing the ban in hospitality premises and the legal action in August 2005, which shifted responsibility for enforcement to police. Eighty-three percent of the 808 articles published on smoking in 1998-2008 were released between 2000-2005, during the policy process. While the press devoted considerable attention to the issues raised by the hospitality sector, the long legislative process of the bill and its regulations also stimulated coverage on tobacco control issues.
