EU debate on revised TPD will be ‘a heated battle with no clear outcome’ – Fiocchi

The forthcoming debate in the European Parliament over the review of the EU Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) could be very heated, with its outcome anything but certain. That’s the view of Parliament member (MEP) Pietro Fiocchi, who sits on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety Committee.

The fiscal regulation and treatment of alternatives to smoking is among the main issues expected to be on the table in discussions which will influence decisions at national level across all EU member states.
