Raising taxes and changing the set of gory pictures on cigarette packs are among the steps that will soon be taken by the UAE to curb tobacco use in the country.
Ahead of World No Tobacco Day tomorrow, a senior official from the UAE Ministry of Health and Prevention said the increased taxes will be implemented soon.
The new set of pictorial health warnings for cigarette packets is also being developed, Dr Hussain Al Rand, Assistant Under-Secretary for Health Centres and Clinics at the ministry told Khaleej Times.
While the World Health Organisation's (WHO) theme for this year's World No Tobacco Day is focused on plain packaging, the UAE plans to use a second set of gory pictures in an attempt to discour-age smokers.
Efforts to curb smoking > Change of pictures on cigarette packs > Fine on violators of the law or bylaw > Raising public awareness on smoking hazards > Provide smoking cessation services > Increase taxes on tobacco products |
