The factsheets present tobacco producƟ on and trade related informaƟ on for Africa. We hope this report will not only enable policy-makers and public health experts to develop a beƩ er understanding of the impact of trade liberalizaƟ on on the domesƟ c producƟ on and consumpƟ on of tobacco, but also of tobacco control measures such as WHO’s Framework ConvenƟ on on Tobacco Control (WHO-FCTC). The country factsheets will help policymakers, civil society, researchers and other stakeholders strengthen support for full implementaƟ on of the FCTC. This collaboraƟ on between WHO and UNCTAD has also advanced the work of the UN Interagency Task Force on the PrevenƟ on and Control of Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), which the United NaƟ ons Secretary-General established in 2013 and placed under the leadership of WHO. ReporƟ ng to the United NaƟ ons Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), the Task Force is coordinaƟ ng the acƟ viƟ es of UN organizaƟ ons to support naƟ onal NCD responses. The joint work demonstrates the beneĮ t of collaboraƟ on between UNCTAD and WHO in terms of accessing and uƟ lizing the technical resources and databases of these organizaƟ ons, and in eī ecƟ vely disseminaƟ ng relevant data and analysis available in the UN system. Data in this publicaƟ on are drawn from mulƟ ple sources already published by WHO, UNCTAD, United NaƟ ons InternaƟ onal Trade StaƟ sƟ cs Database (UN COMTRADE), Food and Agriculture OrganizaƟ on Corporate StaƟ sƟ cal Database (FAOSTAT), World Integrated Trade SoluƟ on (WITS), World Trade OrganizaƟ on (WTO), UN StaƟ sƟ cs Division, UN PopulaƟ on Division and the World Bank. These country proĮ les include trends in current tobacco use, tobacco producƟ on, crop yield, and tobacco trade (including tariī s and non- tariī measures).

    Jose Luis Murillo Vice President Regulatory Affairs July 16, 2018 VIA ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION AND HAND DELIVERY Division of Dockets Management Food and Drug Administration 5630 Fishers Lane, Rm. 1061 Rockville, MD 20852 Re: Docket No. FDA-2017-N-6189 (83 Fed. Reg. 11,818, March 16, 2018) Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on Tobacco Product Standard for Nicotine Level of Certain Tobacco Products Altria Client Services (“ALCS”), on behalf of Philip Morris USA Inc. (“PM USA”), John Middleton Company (“JMC”), and Sherman Group Holdings LLC and its subsidiaries (“Nat Sherman”),1 submits these comments to the Food and Drug Administration’s (“FDA’s” or the “Agency’s”) Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (“ANPRM”) on a Tobacco Product Standard for Nicotine Level of Certain Tobacco Products. The ANPRM comes within the context of an industry in the midst of transformative change. Cigarette smoking is at historically low levels and continues to decline. At the same time, a new market is emerging in innovative noncombustible tobacco products that are potentially less harmful than cigarettes. There is now a scientific consensus that noncombustible products, like e-vapor, are substantially less risky than conventional cigarettes. It is smoke, and not nicotine, that causes most tobacco- related harm. And adult smokers are increasingly expressing interest in switching from cigarettes to less risky alternatives. We agree that a nicotine product standard of some sort may make sense in a future regulatory system, but this requires the pre-existence of a marketplace with alternative, FDA-authorized, reduced risk products; more information about the relative risks of those products; and a regulatory system that respects the rights of adults to make decisions based on accurate information.
