UAE gives three month window for tobacco graphics warnings
- United Arab Emirates: Thursday, September 13 - 2012 at 11:51
The UAE health ministry has given tobacco companies an ultimatum of three months to put graphic warnings on cigarette packs being sold in the country even as a stringent by-law of the Federal Tobacco Law is set to come into effect by year-end, Gulf News has reported. The companies had been ordered to implement a new ruling on pictorial and textual warnings by August 9, but they had sought more time to clear out huge stocks of old packs still held, said Dr Wedad Al Maidoor, head of the national tobacco control committee at the ministry.
