    MEDIA RELEASE 8 December 2017 Former Federal Health Minister presented with major tobacco control award A former Federal Health Minister who implemented Australia’s tobacco plain packaging legislation has been named this year’s winner of the prestigious Bob Elphick Medal. The Honourable Nicola Roxon accepted the 2017 award, which recognises a person who has made an outstanding contribution to tobacco control in Australia, at a breakfast in Perth today. The award was presented to Ms Roxon by Her Excellency the Honourable Kerry Sanderson AO, Governor of Western Australia (and Patron of ACOSH). Ms Roxon, Chairman of Cancer Council Australia, said she was honoured to accept the award. “We all know that tobacco is such a scourge on our community that constant and refreshed effort is needed to limit the harm caused to Australians,” she said. “My work on tobacco control was only possible because of the hard work and other efforts of many public health leaders in the past - this award recognises some of that beneficial continuity.” Ms Roxon, who was the Federal Health Minister from 2007 to 2011, said the Labor Party, had been committed to taking a preventive approach to health. “When elected, we quickly established a Preventative Health Task Force asking them to advise on next steps the Government could take in battling tobacco, alcohol and obesity,” she said. “Plain packaging came to my attention in this report - and was really a no-brainer - as the next great step we could take in limiting the glamour and appeal of tobacco.” Australia was the first country to introduce tobacco plain packaging laws in 2012.

As they spread, Spain’s first modern department stores, supermarkets, consumer magazines, and advertising helped create a public sphere when the Franco regime had curtailed opportunities for public life. In these stores, Spanish consumers encountered foreign products and lifestyles that signaled cosmopolitanism and internationalism, undermining the dictatorship’s foundational discourse of Spanish exceptionalism. With these products came subversive ideas on issues like gender equality,

  • Tobacco Reborn: the Rise of E-Cigarettes and Regulatory Approaches
    LCB_25_3_Article_3_Aaron (Do Not Delete) 8/6/2021 9:26 AM TOBACCO REBORN: THE RISE OF E-CIGARETTES AND REGULATORY APPROACHES by Dr. Daniel G. Aaron* This Article examines e-cigarettes, FDA-regulated products which heat nico- tine-containing fluid into an aerosol to be breathed into the lungs. Recent data show that e-cigarettes are used by about one-fifth of U.S. high school students. Given that we have, in the Surgeon General’s words, reached an epidemic of youth e-cigarette use, it is worth asking how a product within FDA jurisdic- tion became a serious threat to 3.6 million youth. This Article reviews the law surrounding e-cigarettes and the history of FDA’s attempts to regulate them. Administrative law doctrines instruct us that in- creased presidential control will rein in misbehaving agencies by allowing the people to vote out a president who improperly directs the administrative state. However, e-cigarettes present a potent counterexample. On multiple occasions, presidential control over FDA stymied essential tobacco regulations by increas- ing the influence of the tobacco industry over expert agency policymaking. Yet children harmed by these tobacco policies have no right to vote and little po- litical clout with which to advocate for their interests. Ultimately, the emerg- ing approach to regulating e-cigarettes stands in opposition to a looming his- torical context and a boiling epidemic of nicotine addiction. By painting the context of e-cigarettes in lush detail, drawing from history, law, medicine, and public health, this Article charts a path forward for e-cigarettes and other ad- dicting products.

  • Cigars Were Consumed Last Year (1997) in the United States
    Smoking and Tobacco Control Monograph No. 9 Preface The recent increase in cigar consumption began in 1993 and was dismissed by many in public health as a passing fad that would quickly dissipate. Recently released data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) suggests that the upward trend in cigar use might not be as temporary as some had predicted. The USDA now projects a total of slightly more than 5 billion cigars were consumed last year (1997) in the United States. Sales of large cigars, which comprise about two-thirds of the total U.S. cigar market, increased 18 percent between 1996 and 1997. Consumption of premium cigars (mostly imported and hand-made) increased even more, an astounding 90 percent last year and an estimated 250 percent since 1993. In contrast, during this same time period, cigarette consumption declined 2 percent. This dramatic change in tobacco use raises a number of public health questions: Who is using cigars? What are the health risks? Are premium cigars less hazardous than regular cigars? What are the risks if you don't inhale the smoke? What are the health implications of being around a cigar smoker? In order to address these questions, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) undertook a complete review of what is known about cigar smoking and is making this information available to the American public. This monograph, number 9 in a series initiated by NCI in 1991, is the work of over 50 scientists both within and outside the Federal Government. Thirty experts participated in the multi-stage peer review process (see acknowledgments).
