Snusforumet is the first media outlet to gain access to a unique database of roughly 24,000 submissions to the European Commission’s call for evidence process ahead of revisions to EU tobacco laws.
It’s the first time so many EU citizens have been so clear about their wishes for nicotine pouches.
On May 20th, the European Commission opened a “call for evidence” process as part of its ongoing evaluation of the current EU legislative framework for tobacco control.
Public authorities, businesses, civil society organisations, as well as individual citizens were invited to share their views on proposed changes in EU policies governing tobacco and nicotine products.
The 4-week window, which closed on June 17th, resulted in a record number of responses, around 24,000, a figure that dwarfs the average of around 400 submissions. Individual citizens account for more than 90 percent of the responses, suggesting the issue of tobacco and nicotine regulation is high on the agenda for EU consumers.
