Time off to give up smoking!!!

I heard on the radio a government research committee of some sort has recommended employers give there smoking employees time off work on full pay to give up smoking.

What clap trap, if this comes law it will open the door for fat people to loose weight drug addicts to kick the habit and alcoholics to sober up. And a whole load of other issues like I need to get my stress levels down, etc and etc.

Just a crack pot idea which most likely will never see the light of day.

90% who phoned in on the radio show said it was nuts.
