The Health Bureau says it has accepted the suggestion by the six casino operators that smoking zones in mass gaming halls be scrapped and replaced with smoking rooms without slot machines or gaming tables, the Macau Daily News reports.

The Chinese-language newspaper says the government has decided to apply such arrangements first to the 14 casinos and slot machine parlours that failed two rounds of tests of the air quality in their smoking zones last year.

The new arrangements would allow VIP gaming rooms to still have smoking zones where gamblers could continue playing.

There is no schedule in place for introducing the changes.
