Amendment 78 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 22
(22) The labelling provisions also need to be adapted tso new scientific evidence. For example tthat they do not mislead consumers. The indication of the yields for tar, nicotine and carbon monoxide on cigarette packets have proven tomay be mislreading as it by consumers as it often makes consumers believe that certain cigarettes are less harmful than others. Evidence also suggests that large combined health warnings are more effective than text-only warnings. In this light combined health warnings should become mandatory throughout the Union and cover significant and visible parts of the packet surface. A minimum size should be set for all health warnings to ensure their visibility and effectiveness.
