煙草在線據(jù)《華沙商務(wù)日?qǐng)?bào)》報(bào)道編譯　　2012年12月，歐洲委員會(huì)提議歐盟禁止加香卷煙和細(xì)長(zhǎng)款卷煙。這項(xiàng)舉措一旦得到執(zhí)行，就可能對(duì)波蘭煙草業(yè)和波蘭政府預(yù)算產(chǎn)生重大消極影響。

　　波蘭商會(huì)警告說(shuō)，這項(xiàng)舉措可能會(huì)失去三分之一的波蘭煙草市場(chǎng)。歐盟的所有薄荷卷煙中，多達(dá)40%是在波蘭制造的。

　　煙草業(yè)每年為波蘭政府帶來(lái)200億波蘭茲羅提的稅收收入。波蘭商會(huì)呼吁總理唐納德·圖斯克不要簽署這項(xiàng)指令。

　　歐洲委員會(huì)提議制定一項(xiàng)禁止所有加香卷煙和薄荷卷煙的法令。它還提議，所有在歐盟內(nèi)制造的卷煙的直徑必須是7.5毫米或更大。

　　這項(xiàng)提案還會(huì)對(duì)包裝產(chǎn)生影響。根據(jù)提議實(shí)施的新法，卷煙包裝表面的75%，也必須覆蓋健康警語(yǔ)和與吸煙有關(guān)的疾病的圖片。

　　歐洲委員會(huì)說(shuō)，現(xiàn)行的《煙草產(chǎn)品指令》歷時(shí)已經(jīng)超過(guò)10年，新法將使煙草法律跟上當(dāng)前的健康研究。它還對(duì)新產(chǎn)品和新發(fā)展，像電子卷煙和網(wǎng)上銷(xiāo)售等進(jìn)行規(guī)范。

　　如果獲得批準(zhǔn)，這項(xiàng)法律提案預(yù)計(jì)將在2014年被采用，并從2015年起開(kāi)始生效。

New EU Cigarette Laws Could Burn Polish Industry

　　In December, the European Commission proposed that the EU ban flavored and slim cigarettes, a move which if implemented could have a major negative impact on the Polish tobacco industry and the government's budget.

　　The Polish Chamber of Commerce (PIH) has warned that the directive could eliminate one-third of Poland's tobacco market. As much as 40 percent of all menthol cigarettes in the EU are made in Poland.

　　The tobacco industry generates up to z?.20 billion annually in tax revenue for the government. The PIH has appealed to Prime Minister Donald Tusk not to sign the directive.

　　The European Commission is proposing a ban on all flavored and menthol cigarettes. It also proposes that all cigarettes made in the EU should be 7.5 mm in diameter or larger.

　　The proposal would also affect packaging. Under the proposed new rules, 75 percent of a cigarette pack’s surface would have to be covered with health warnings and graphic pictures of smoking-related ailments.

　　The current Tobacco Products Directive is over 10 years old, and the new one will bring tobacco laws up to date with current health studies, the EC says. It would regulate new products and developments, like electronic cigarettes and online sales.

　　If approved, proposal is expected to be adopted in 2014, and would come into effect from 2015. Enditem
