<p>As required by Article 15(7) of the Tobacco Products Directive, HM Revenue &
Customs (HMRC) has ensured tobacco manufacturers and importers have arrangements in
place to provide economic operators with the equipment necessary to record and transmit
track and trace transactions.</p><p> </p><p>These arrangements, which include the
level of compensation offered, are contractual matters between tobacco manufacturers
and importers, and the companies in their supply chains. HMRC has not been involved
in these contractual discussions and is unable to comment on how the compensation
is calculated.</p>
