<p>Snus is banned under the European Union’s Tobacco Products Directive. The Government
committed in the Tobacco Control Plan for England to review where the United Kingdom’s
exit from the EU offers us opportunities to re-appraise current regulation to ensure
this continues to protect the nation’s health. We will look to identify where we can
sensibly deregulate without harming public health or where current EU regulations
limit our ability to deal with tobacco. The Government’s goal will remain to achieve
a proportionate approach to managing risk, one which protects the young and non-smokers,
whilst giving smokers access to products which will reduce harm.</p>
