answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/03/2018 answer text <p>The oral nicotine product snus was originally banned under Directive 92/41/EEC. This ban was reaffirmed in 2001 and most recently in the Tobacco Products Directive 2014/40/EU, implemented in the United Kingdom by the Tobacco and Related Products Regulations 2016. The Department has received a number of representations concerning snus over recent years. The makers of snus, Swedish Match, have challenged the legality of the ban on snus and this matter is currently before the European Court of Justice; as such, the strength of the evidence for or against the ban is a matter for the Court and the UK awaits the outcome of that case.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine question first answered 06/03/2018 15:01:27 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
