Plain Packaging Consultation – Release of Background Documents and Information

Local submissions on the plain packaging of tobacco products consultation

The attached information consists of the substantive written submissions received by the Ministry of Health from within New Zealand.

Note that the released submissions are numbered. The numbering system identifies submissions from New Zealand separately from those received from overseas.

An appendix to submission 184, and submissions 208 and 213 have been withheld under section 9 (2)(ba) of the Act.
