World Vapers' Alliance presenteert zeven stappen richting schadebeperking in Italië nu de nieuwe regering aantreedt

Today, the global vaping advocacy group delivered a 7-step strategy for the new Italian government to reduce smoking rates. In the wake of the new government’s appointment in Italy, World Vapers’ Alliance (WVA) together with its Italian partner organisation, ANPVU, delivered the recommendations to reduce smoking and combat smoking-induced deaths to representatives of the parties forming the new government.

De “7-stappenstrategie”"werd ook aangekondigd tijdens een persconferentie in Rome, waar de nieuwe regering een vertrouwensstemming in het parlement kreeg. De persconferentie werd bijgewoond door Michael Landl, directeur van de World Vapers' Alliance, Europarlementariër Gianna Gancia (Lega), Barbara Mennitti, hoofdredacteur van SigMagazine, en Anna Corbosiero, vicevoorzitter van de National Association of United Vapers (ANPVU).

“I am of the opinion that this new government that has just taken office has all the credentials to address the issue of tobacco legislation with a scientific and fact-based approach. In the proposed revision of the Tobacco Products Directive, it is necessary that the Italian government insist on some fundamental points concerning the legislation on electronic cigarettes,” said MEP from Lega Gianna Gancia.
