Introduction 1.1 About this report This technical report provides details of the methodology for the National Tobacco Plain Packaging Tracking survey. The research was funded by the Department of Health under a contract with Cancer Council Victoria. Fieldwork was undertaken by the Social Research Centre, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Australian National University. This report documents the study design and provides detail of survey procedures including sample frame, respondent selection procedure, interview procedure and questionnaire design, respondent characteristics, response rates and retention rates, and data weighting. 1.2 Study background and context for evaluation In April 2010, as part of an overall package of measures, the Australian Government announced an immediate 25% increase in excise duty on tobacco, along with a world-first proposal for plain packaging of tobacco products[1, 2] together with updated, larger graphic health warnings.

  • Flexible Packaging Buyers Guide 2018 - 2019 Flexible Packaging
    FLEXIBLE PACKAGING BUYERS GUIDE 2018 - 2019 FLEXIBLE PACKAGING • Innovative • Creates Shelf Appeal • Widely Extendible Into Diverse • Enables Visibility of Contents Product Categories • Provides Efficient Product to Package • Maintains and Indicates Freshness Ratios • Offers Consumer Conveniences • Uses Less Energy • Provides Reclosure and Dispensing • Creates Fewer Emissions Options • Creates Less Waste in the First • Is Easily Transported and Stored Place® As one of the fastest growing segments of the packaging industry, flexible packaging combines the best qualities of plastic, film, paper and aluminum foil to deliver a broad range of protective properties while employing a minimum of material. Typically taking the shape of a bag, pouch, liner, or overwrap, flexible packaging is defined as any package or any part of a package whose shape can be readily changed. Flexible packages are used for consumer and institutional products and in industrial applications, to protect, market, and distribute a vast array of products. Leading the way in packaging innovation, flexible packaging adds value and marketability to food and non-food products alike. From ensuring food safety and extending shelf life, to providing even heating, barrier protection, ease of use, resealability and superb printability, the industry continues to advance at an unprecedented rate. The life cycle attributes of flexible packaging demonstrate many sustainable advantages. Flexible packaging starts with less waste in the first place, greatly reducing landfill discards. Innovation and technology have enabled flexible packaging manufacturers to use fewer natural resources in the creation of their packaging, and improvements in production processes have reduced water and energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions and volatile organic compounds.

December 2012 (1212003) Print managed by Finsbury Green. Printed on sustainable paper. Foreword Keeping Victorians as well as they can be is important for individuals, families and the community. It is also crucial for a strong economy and a healthy, productive workforce. Skin cancer is a significant burden not only on the Victorian community, but also nationally. Australia has the highest age-standardised incidence of melanoma in the world (Australian Institute of Health and Welfare 2010b). It is the most common form of cancer, with two in three Australians being diagnosed with the disease before the age of 70 (Stiller 2007). Of all cancers, skin cancer represents one of the most significant cost burdens on our health system and is one of the most preventable cancers. Victoria is a leader in skin cancer prevention, achieved through world class research, the innovative and internationally recognised SunSmart program, and policy and legislation reform.

What form of power do they epitomise? Why have they become so prominent? Are they set to be as important for the globalisation of services as for manufactured goods? Jean-Christophe Graz draws on international pol- itical economy and cognate fields to present strong theoretical argu- ments, compelling research, and surprising evidence on the role of standards in the global expansion of services, with in-depth studies of their institutional environment and cases including the insurance indus- try and business process outsourcing in India. The power of standards resembles a form of transnational hybrid authority, in which ambiguity should be seen as a generic attribute, defining not only the status of public and private actors involved in standardisation and regulation but also the scope of issues concerned and the space in which such authority is recognised when complying to standards. This book is also available in Open Access.

  • Plain Packaging of Cigarettes and Smoking Behavior
    Maynard et al. Trials 2014, 15:252 http://www.trialsjournal.com/content/15/1/252 TRIALS STUDY PROTOCOL Open Access Plain packaging of cigarettes and smoking behavior: study protocol for a randomized controlled study Olivia M Maynard1,2,3*, Ute Leonards3, Angela S Attwood1,2,3, Linda Bauld2,4, Lee Hogarth5 and Marcus R Munafò1,2,3 Abstract Background: Previous research on the effects of plain packaging has largely relied on self-report measures. Here we describe the protocol of a randomized controlled trial investigating the effect of the plain packaging of cigarettes on smoking behavior in a real-world setting. Methods/Design: In a parallel group randomization design, 128 daily cigarette smokers (50% male, 50% female) will attend an initial screening session and be assigned plain or branded packs of cigarettes to smoke for a full day. Plain packs will be those currently used in Australia where plain packaging has been introduced, while branded packs will be those currently used in the United Kingdom. Our primary study outcomes will be smoking behavior (self-reported number of cigarettes smoked and volume of smoke inhaled per cigarette as measured using a smoking topography device). Secondary outcomes measured pre- and post-intervention will be smoking urges, motivation to quit smoking, and perceived taste of the cigarettes. Secondary outcomes measured post-intervention only will be experience of smoking from the cigarette pack, overall experience of smoking, attributes of the cigarette pack, perceptions of the on-packet health warnings, behavior changes, views on plain packaging, and the rewarding value of smoking. Sex differences will be explored for all analyses.
