煙草在線據(jù)《煙業(yè)通訊》報(bào)道編譯　　據(jù)《海灣時(shí)報(bào)》的報(bào)道說，阿聯(lián)酋已就一項(xiàng)將于明年開始生效的聯(lián)邦綜合反煙法案達(dá)成一致。

　　根據(jù)這項(xiàng)新法案，以商業(yè)目的種植煙草或制造煙草產(chǎn)品將被禁止?，F(xiàn)行的煙草制造廠被給予了10年的寬限期，但煙農(nóng)只有2年的寬限期。

　　這項(xiàng)法律還禁止進(jìn)口與阿聯(lián)酋制定的技術(shù)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)不相符合的煙草產(chǎn)品。除了被查沒非法產(chǎn)品之外，違法者還將面臨一年的監(jiān)禁及10萬至100萬阿聯(lián)酋迪拉姆的罰款。

　　所有煙盒上都將必須在煙盒的正面展示大面積的健康警語標(biāo)簽，違法者也要被處以重罰。

　　這項(xiàng)法律將禁止煙草產(chǎn)品的廣告，禁止在靠近向兒童出售的物品、運(yùn)動(dòng)服、保健食品和電子產(chǎn)品的地方展示煙草產(chǎn)品。

　　煙草還將被禁止在距離幼兒園、學(xué)校、大學(xué)和學(xué)院周圍15米的范圍內(nèi)，或在距離宗教場所100米的范圍內(nèi)出售。

　　水煙咖啡館距離居民區(qū)必須至少150米。這些咖啡館的工作時(shí)間將受到管制。它們不能向18歲以下的人提供服務(wù)，不允許給公寓送水煙。

　　這項(xiàng)法律將禁止在有12歲以下的兒童乘坐的私人汽車內(nèi)吸煙。

評(píng)論：

　　阿聯(lián)酋的控?zé)煷胧┛芍^是“多管齊下，治標(biāo)又治本”。從提高煙稅、禁止煙草宣傳、監(jiān)管水煙館到禁止車內(nèi)吸煙和電子煙，到強(qiáng)制限定煙盒印制健康警語，尤其是現(xiàn)在又要禁止種植煙草和制造煙草產(chǎn)品，從源頭上大大減少了人們接觸煙草的機(jī)會(huì)，同時(shí)，還嚴(yán)格限制進(jìn)口和打擊走私，幾乎切斷了煙草進(jìn)入阿聯(lián)酋的各個(gè)渠道。澳大利亞是實(shí)施卷煙平裝的先驅(qū)者，阿聯(lián)酋卻走在了徹底禁煙的前列，如果每個(gè)國家都能效仿這種“斬草除根”的精神和措施，相信煙草就會(huì)離我們越來越遙遠(yuǎn)。

Tobacco Growing and Manufacturing to be Banned in United Arab Emirates

　　The United Arab Emirates has agreed a comprehensive federal anti-tobacco will come into force next year, according to a story in the Khaleej Times.

　　Under the new law, growing or manufacturing tobacco for commercial purposes will be banned. Existing manufacturing plants have been given a grace period of 10 years, but tobacco farmers have been given just two years' grace.

　　The law bans, too, the importation of tobacco products that are not consistent with technical standards set by the UAE. Violators could find themselves facing a one-year prison sentence and a fine ranging from AED100,000 to AED1 million, in addition to the confiscation of the noncompliant products.

　　All packs will have to display a large warning label on the front and, once again, violations will attract hefty penalties.

　　The law will ban the advertising of tobacco products and their display near items marketed for children, sportswear, health food and electronic products.

　　Tobacco products will be banned from sale within 15 meters of kindergartens, schools, universities and colleges, or within 100 meters of places of worship.

　　Shisha cafés will have to be at least 150 meters away from residential areas. Their working hours will be regulated; they will not be able to serve people under 18 years of age; and they will not be allowed to deliver shishas to apartments.

　　The law will ban smoking in private vehicles if a person under 12 years of age is traveling in them. Enditem
