De LBBF gaf aan dat zij in 2020 via een online workshop met het ministerie van Volksgezondheid in gesprek is geweest, maar is teleurgesteld dat de tijdens die workshop aangekaarte punten niet zijn opgenomen in het definitieve wetsvoorstel dat aan het parlement is voorgelegd.<\/p>\n<p>Wat de regelgeving betreft, gaf de LBBF aan de inspanningen om roken in Zuid-Afrika terug te dringen te steunen. De heer Lobi van de LBBF zei dat een slimmere, meer praktische aanpak nodig is om het doel van het wetsvoorstel te bereiken en tegelijkertijd schade aan gemeenschappen en bedrijven te voorkomen. Hij drong er bij de regering op aan zich meer te richten op het bestrijden van de ongecontroleerde illegale tabakshandel, die vooral jongeren en armen treft.<\/p>\n<p>De LBBF stelde dat de overheid zich zou moeten richten op het voorkomen van roken onder jongeren door middel van gedrags- en educatieve programma&#039;s, zoals in het verleden bijvoorbeeld is gedaan met voorlichtingscampagnes over hiv\/aids. Deze programma&#039;s zijn essentieel voor het vinden van een duurzame oplossing om roken terug te dringen.<\/p>\n<p>Lees de volledige tekst <a href=\"https:\/\/menafn.com\/1109812324\/South-Africa-Committee-On-Health-Receives-Inputs-On-Tobacco-Bill-From-Lesedi-Black-Business-Forum-And-World-Vapers-Alliance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hier<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Portfolio Committee on Health has received briefings from the Lesedi Black Business Forum (LBBF) and the World Vapers Alliance (WVA) on the Tobacco and Electronic Delivery System Control Bill.
