New mayor gets private smoking room
Former defence minister Cees van der Knaap, who is about to be sworn in as mayor of Ede, is having a special smoking room built next to his office, the Telegraaf reports.
The paper says chain-smoking Van der Knaap has also made sure that civil servants, who currently have to go outside to smoke, will also get an indoor smoking area.
