E-cigs at COP6
Following the often polarised debate during revision of the TPD over regulating electronic cigarettes, many Parties expressed an interest in discussing the products in the context of the FCTC. The Convention Secretariat announced that electronic cigarettes would feature on the agenda of COP6, scheduled for October 2014 in Moscow.
This week’s meeting was organised by the FCTC Secretariat and kindly hosted by the Hungarian Ministry of Health. Representatives from the World Bank, the UNDP and UNCTAD also attended.
The WHO EURO region will next meet in May 2014 to coordinate an expert group to build on the success of the 2013 Ashgabat Declaration on the Prevention and Control of Non-communicable Diseases and to discuss the goal of creating a tobacco-free Europe by 2040.
