The Standard reports smokers are about find out exactly where "indoors" is when they light up in public.

The Court of First Instance yesterday cleared the way for the government to ask Hong Kong's highest court to define "indoor" in the anti-smoking law to avoid further legal tussles with smokers.

Judge Louis Tong Po-sun granted leave to take the case to the Court of Final Appeal to decide if "indoor" has to be premises that are enclosed at least up to 50 percent of the total area on each side.
