Deze stap wordt door tabaksschadebeperkingsorganisaties in het Centraal-Amerikaanse land als een positieve eerste stap beschouwd.<\/p>\n<p>Begin augustus diende de Panamese Vereniging voor Tabaksschadebeperking (ARDTP) een aanklacht in bij het Hooggerechtshof, waarin zij betoogde dat Wet 315, die het gebruik, de verkoop en de import van e-sigaretten en verhitte tabak in het land verbiedt, ongrondwettelijk is en moet worden ingetrokken.<\/p>\n<p>Op 21 september besloot het Hooggerechtshof vervolgens om de door de ARDTP ingediende claim in behandeling te nemen. De komende maanden zal het hof naar verwachting de grondwettelijkheid van het verbod bespreken.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c&quot;Als de rechtbank ermee instemt een zaak te behandelen, is dat omdat ze heeft vastgesteld dat er voldoende bewijs is om een claim te ondersteunen&quot;, vertelde Tomas Sanchez, voorzitter van de ARDTP, aan ECigIntelligence. &quot;De rechtbank zal nu het bewijsmateriaal dat we hebben aangeleverd en dat onze claim van ongrondwettelijkheid versterkt, beoordelen, verifi\u00ebren en bepalen of we gelijk hebben of niet.&quot;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>S\u00e1nchez legde uit dat, mocht het Hooggerechtshof de bewering van ongrondwettelijkheid gegrond verklaren, Wet 315 zou worden teruggestuurd naar de Wetgevende Vergadering van het land voor herziening. Na de wijzigingen door de Wetgevende Vergadering zou de wet opnieuw worden voorgelegd aan het Hooggerechtshof om te beoordelen of deze al dan niet grondwettelijk is.<\/p>\n<p>Hij voegde eraan toe dat, als het Hooggerechtshof besluit dat de wet moet worden ingetrokken, de Wetgevende Vergadering een nieuwe wet zal moeten opstellen ter vervanging van Wet 315.<\/p>\n<p>Lees de volledige tekst <a href=\"https:\/\/www.siliconindia.com\/news\/general\/panama-supreme-court-agrees-to-hear-lawsuit-on-unconstitutional-ecig-ban-nid-226332-cid-1.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hier<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Panama\u2019s Supreme Court has agreed to hear a lawsuit that claims the country\u2019s 2022 ban on electronic cigarettes and heated tobacco is unconstitutional \u2013 a move seen as a positive first step by tobacco harm reduction groups in the Central American nation.
