Regulations under the Comprehensive Smokeless Tobacco Health Education Act of 1986; Information Collection Requirement

الملخص

This publication provides notice that the Federal Trade Commission is seeking renewed approval for three years from OMB for the information collection requirements contained in the Regulations under the Comprehensive Smokeless Tobacco Health Education Act of 1986. The present OMB approval for the information collection requirements is scheduled to expire on August 31, 1995. The Smokeless Tobacco Act requires, among other things, that manufacturers, packagers, and importers of smokeless tobacco products include health warnings on packages and in advertisements. The Act also requires each manufacturer, packager, and importer of a smokeless tobacco product to submit a plan to the Commission that specifies the methods used to rotate, display, and distribute the warning statements required to appear in advertising and labeling. Section 3(d) directs the Commission to approve plans that provide for rotation, display, and distribution of the warning statements in accordance with the regulations. All the affected companies have previously filed plans, but the plan submission requirement continues to apply to a company that amends its plans, or to a new company that enters the market.
