Smoking Habits Survey, 2008

During the 1960's the question of influencing people's smoking habits was treated several times in the Norwegian Parliament. Important documents for the justification of a more restrictive policy with respect to the marketing of tobacco products "Påvirkning av røykeadferd", The Norwegian Cancer Society 1967, where the proposal to build an administration that would take care of the work on smoking and health was raised. Report to the Storting nr. 62, 1968-1969, that proposed a ban on cigarette advertising, and Recommandation of the Social Commitee nr. 143, 1969-1970. The National Council on Tobacco and Health was created in 1971, and the same year came "Innstilling til lov om restriktive tiltak ved omsetning av tobakksvarer" (The Tobacco Act), enacted as law nr. 14 og March 9th 1973 and implemented from July 1st 1975. On behalf of the National Council on Tobacco and Health Statistics Norway has since 1973 conducted smoking habits surveys as an addition to the Labour Force Surveys every 4th quarter. In 1974 and in 1975 the Smoking habits survey was conducted each quarter of the year. The purpose was to obtain information on the status and changes in Norwegian smoking habits, mainly as research material for the National Council on Tobacco and Health. From 1992 to 2004, questions on smoking habits have largely been asked in connection with Statistics Norway's Omnibus Surveys. The Travel and Holiday Surveys is a continuation of the Omnibus Surveys. The main purpose of these surveys is to identify Norwegians' travel habits, and to ensure the collection of other official statistics. Questions about smoking habits are included in these surveys. This file contains questions about smoking habits asked in connection with the Travel and Holiday Survey, October 2008.

20世纪60年代，挪威议会（Storting）曾多次就影响民众吸烟习惯的议题开展审议。彼时支撑烟草制品营销限制性政策的重要文件包括：挪威癌症协会1967年发布的《吸烟行为影响研究》（Påvirkning av røykeadferd），该文件提出设立专门机构统筹吸烟与健康相关工作的提案；1968-1969年度提交至议会的第62号报告，该报告提议全面禁止香烟广告；以及1969-1970年度社会委员会第143号建议。

1971年，挪威国家烟草与健康委员会（National Council on Tobacco and Health）正式成立；同年，《烟草制品销售限制法案》（Innstilling til lov om restriktive tiltak ved omsetning av tobakksvarer）草案出台，该法案于1973年3月9日以第14号法律正式颁布，并于1975年7月1日正式施行。

受挪威国家烟草与健康委员会委托，挪威统计署（Statistics Norway）自1973年起，每第四季度开展一次吸烟习惯调查，作为劳动力调查的补充项目。1974年与1975年，该调查改为按季度开展。此项调查的核心目标为获取挪威民众吸烟习惯的现状与变化趋势数据，主要作为挪威国家烟草与健康委员会的研究支撑材料。

1992年至2004年，吸烟习惯相关问题大多被纳入挪威统计署的综合抽样调查（Omnibus Surveys）中。旅行与假日调查是综合抽样调查的延续项目，其主要用途为调研挪威民众的旅行习惯，同时保障其他官方统计数据的采集工作，此类调查中同样包含吸烟习惯相关问题。

本数据集收录了2008年10月旅行与假日调查中所使用的吸烟习惯相关问题。
