27th February 2023
Israel: The Ministry of Health has submitted its study on the use of tobacco products for the year 2021 to the Knesset (parliament). The report states that 10% of teenagers use e-cigarettes or heated tobacco, with rates at 9.2% among men and 4.0% among women. The report also criticises the beneficial tax regime compared to cigarettes, claiming that it only increases the usage and will eventually lead to a smoking epidemic.2nd November 2022
Israel: With most votes counted after yesterday’s general election, the Likud party led by former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu appeared set to unseat premier Yair Lapid and return Netanyahu to power. Netanyahu’s right-wing bloc, which includes the Religious Zionist Party (RZP), the conservative United Torah Judaism (UTJ), and the religious Shas party, has a more negative approach to vaping and new tobacco products than the outgoing government, as shown by the policies implemented in its previous terms of office.
2nd June 2022
- Israel: The Knesset (parliament) has given the final approval to the Bill on Restriction on Advertising and Marketing of Tobacco and Smoking Products. This new regulation will progressively restrict the only permitted forms of advertising heated tobacco: written advertisements. In the first stage, over the next three years, print media adverts will have to carry a bigger health warning, doubling the size of the ad itself. Once this three-year period comes to an end, the maximum advert size will be reduced by 25% each year over the following four years. Once the four-year period is over (which would be seven years from now), printed advertisements for those products will be completely banned.
