Children in pubs

Since the total smoking ban my local pub is allowing children into any part of it.
But I thought that the restriction on where children can be in a pub was a question of where alcohol was being served and nothing to do with smoking.
Since this particular pub has no garden or Family Room, children were restricted to one end, beyond where the bar finished. Should that not still be the case?

Children under 16 can go anywhere in a pub as long as they are supervised by an adult, but cannot have any alcoholic drinks.

However, some premises may be subject to licensing conditions preventing them from entering, such as pubs
which have experienced problems with underage drinking.

Thank you, Ethel. The law has obviously been changed without my noticing it.
