answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/12/2014 answer text <p>The Government has not yet made a final decision on whether to introduce standardised packaging of tobacco products. The Government continues to consider carefully all issues relevant to the introduction of standardised packaging of tobacco products and a decision will be taken in due course. The United Kingdom notified the draft regulations under the EU Technical Standards Directive (Directive 98/34/EC). Pursuant to this Directive, the regulations cannot be made until after the notification ‘standstill’ period has ended on 2 March 2015. If the Government does decide to proceed with standardised packaging, a decision will then be made as to the appropriate Parliamentary timetable for the proposed regulations.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Battersea answering member printed Jane Ellison question first answered 16/12/2014 17:06:29 answering member 3918 label Biography information for Jane Ellison
