=IMPACT OF TOBACCO LAWS CONSULTATION=
Consultation closes at 11:59pm on Sunday 15 September 2019
The government is inviting responses to a consultation on 'The impact of tobacco laws introduced between 2010 and 2016 ([link removed]) '.
Those laws are:
* The Tobacco Advertising and Promotion (Display) (England) Regulations 2010
* The Tobacco and Advertising (Specialist Tobacconists) (England) Regulations 2010
* The Tobacco and Advertising (Display of Prices) (England) Regulations 2010
* The Smoke-free (Private Vehicles) Regulations 2015
* The Nicotine Inhaling Products (Age of Sale and Proxy Purchasing) Regulations 2015
Questions include:
* Do you think the display ban of tobacco in small and large shops has helped to reduce the number of children and young people smoking?
* Do you think the tobacco display ban has encouraged and supported adult smokers to quit?
* Is the display ban an effective way to protect children and young people from taking up smoking and supporting those who wish to quit?
* Have the Smoke-free (Private Vehicles) Regulations helped prevent people from smoking in vehicles with children?
* Do you believe prohibiting smoking in private vehicles is an effective way to protect children and young people from harms of tobacco and second-hand smoke?
* Do you think the Nicotine Inhaling Products Regulations have helped prevent the sale of nicotine inhaling products, including e-cigarettes, to under 18s
* Has anyone else benefited from the age restriction and proxy (when an adult buys a product on behalf of a minor) purchasing ban on nicotine inhaling products?
The format is pretty simple. For example:
Do you think the tobacco display ban has encouraged and supported adult smokers to quit?
* Yes, I think it has
* No, I don’t think it has
* I don’t know if it has or has not
I appreciate that many of you will be pretty cynical about any tobacco-related ‘consultation’, and with good reason.
Nevertheless, we would welcome your participation because the response to consultations such this can influence future government policy.
