TPD3: Consumers and scientists urged to act as EU prepares new tobacco rules
An international group urges European nicotine consumers to engage in discussions shaping the Tobacco Products Directive (TPD3) in the European Union. They emphasize the need for consumer involvement to ensure policies prioritize health outcomes and consider harm reduction. The group advocates for a framework based on scientific evidence, transparency, and risk proportionality. Policymakers are encouraged to recognize the impact of regulations on smoking cessation and product choices. The importance of consumer empowerment and inclusion in policy decisions is highlighted, with a call for stakeholders to contribute to the ongoing consultation process before the June 15th deadline.
