En ny<\/span> unders\u00f8gelse offentliggjort i Addiction<\/span><\/a> l\u00e6gger det klart ud. Australien indf\u00f8rte straffende tobaksafgifter og blokerede forbrugernes adgang til mindre skadelige nikotinalternativer. Resultatet: ansl\u00e5et 55% af al tobak solgt i Australien og 95,7% af alle vapes er nu ulovlige. Nikotinforbruget er rekordh\u00f8jt. Rygning er ikke kollapset. <\/span>ulovlig nikotinhandel<\/span><\/a> er nu ansl\u00e5et til 1,5 milliarder pund (1,5 milliarder pund) at v\u00e6re v\u00e6rd, og over 100 brandbomber mod butiksfacader alene i Victoria er blevet forbundet med kriminelle grupper, der k\u00e6mper om markedskontrol.<\/span><\/p>\n

Forfatternes konklusion: Australien b\u00f8r give forbrugerne lettere adgang til mindre skadelige alternative nikotinprodukter for at bringe de ulovlige markeder under kontrol.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Se nu p\u00e5, hvad Det Europ\u00e6iske R\u00e5d og kommiss\u00e6r Wopke Hoekstra foresl\u00e5r for Europa.<\/span><\/p>\n

De<\/span> det seneste forslag til direktiv om punktafgifter p\u00e5 tobak<\/span><\/a> ville \u00f8ge minimumspunktafgifterne p\u00e5 detailhandelspriser med 150% p\u00e5 cigaretter og 50% p\u00e5 rulletobak, samtidig med at der indf\u00f8res nye minimumspunktafgifter p\u00e5 55% for opvarmede tobakspinde og 30% for e-v\u00e6sker, uanset nikotinkoncentration. Specifikt for nikotinposer fasts\u00e6tter forslaget en minimumssats p\u00e5 50%, en stigning p\u00e5 410% i forhold til de nuv\u00e6rende svenske satser. Produkter, som offentlige sundhedsorganer i Storbritannien, Sverige og andre steder anbefaler som v\u00e6rkt\u00f8jer til at hj\u00e6lpe folk med at holde op med at ryge, ville effektivt blive prissat uden for r\u00e6kkevidde eller beskattet i irrelevans.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nogle medlemsstater \u00f8nsker at g\u00e5 endnu l\u00e6ngere og presser p\u00e5 for h\u00f8jere satser, strengere kontrol og endda fuldst\u00e6ndige forbud mod produkter som nikotinposer. Kommissionen ser p\u00e5 sin side ud til ikke at behandle Australiens katastrofe som en advarsel, men som en politisk model.<\/span><\/p>\n

De tal, som Bruxelles allerede har foran sig, burde v\u00e6re tilstr\u00e6kkelige. If\u00f8lge <\/span>KPMG-data<\/span><\/a> Som det fremg\u00e5r af et brev fra industrien til von der Leyen og Hoekstra, forbruges der 52 milliarder ulovlige cigaretter hvert \u00e5r i Europa, hvilket koster regeringerne 19 milliarder euro i tabte indt\u00e6gter. Frankrig, der ofte n\u00e6vnes som en succeshistorie for tobaksafgifter, har nu et sort marked, der d\u00e6kker en tredjedel af landets tobaksmarked. EU's ulovlige handel beh\u00f8ver ikke opmuntring. Den har brug for mindre af den.<\/span><\/p>\n

Den australske rapport er klar over, hvor dette f\u00f8rer hen. Straffeafgifter og begr\u00e6nset adgang til mindre skadelige alternativer reducerer ikke nikotinforbruget. De flytter det under jorden, overlader markedet til organiseret kriminalitet og presser nogle mennesker tilbage til cigaretter. <\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

A new study published in Addiction lays it out plainly. Australia adopted punitive tobacco taxes and blocked consumer access to less harmful nicotine alternatives.
