The report provides necessary insights into various aspects of the e-cigarette industry, through specific regulations, requirements, limitations, and expert analysis based on firsthand data collected from legislators and industry professionals of particular nations.

The TPD product notification concerns proposals related to taxation and sanctions on advertising and marketing in public places, as well as packaging and labeling laws for products. The promotional material for Zhongdian Healthy Warning Leaflets is available in multiple packs and individually wrapped units, with zero nicotine. Meanwhile, the EU's Commissioner for Health and Food Safety, Stella Kyriakides, has made a statement questioning the effectiveness of e-cigarettes as a smoking cessation aid and even suggesting that they may serve as a gateway to smoking, spreading false information about e-cigarettes.


Michael Landl, director of the World Vapers' Alliance (WVA), expressed his disappointment that the European Commission continues to ignore the scientific evidence on e-cigarettes and make statements despite it. "It is shocking that the Commission is still peddling outdated and debunked theories," Landl said. "The Commission has systematically ignored vast scientific evidence pointing to the benefits of e-cigarettes, not to mention the firsthand experiences of millions of vapers. E-cigarettes are 95% less harmful than smoking and are a more effective smoking cessation method than traditional therapies such as gum and patches. The commission's approach to e-cigarettes will only cost lives.


The problematic statement is a written response to MEP Sara Skyttedal's inquiry about the future treatment of electronic and nasal snuff and their place in Europe's anti-cancer plan. "Overall, smokeless tobacco and emerging tobacco and related products contain nicotine, a toxic and highly addictive substance - known to cause significant health consequences - and they prolong nicotine addiction times. This is why these products are regulated and oral tobacco is banned in the EU," the statement concludes.


Sadly, Commissioner Kyriakides did not consider the scientific issues regarding nicotine and instead chose to ignore opinions from experts and consumers. A statement reveals that the European Commission intends to crack down on e-cigarettes, which is not a promising indication for the upcoming Tobacco Products Directive update. This strengthens the belief that consumers need to speak up and convince the representatives in the European Parliament to reduce harm, added Randall.
