煙草在線據(jù)法新社報(bào)道編譯　　衛(wèi)生部長瑪莉索·都蘭10月8日表示，隨著該國試圖降低16歲以下青少年的高吸煙率，法國將在2016年引入平裝卷煙。

　　在澳大利亞成功引入平裝后，政府稱消費(fèi)已經(jīng)減少了，都蘭上月宣布了一系列措施，以解決吸煙禍害，在法國每天有200人死于吸煙。

　　該部長對法國廣播電臺(tái)稱，該策略的主要要點(diǎn)是平裝，“在2016年初平裝卷煙將進(jìn)入煙草店”。

　　法國是歐洲16歲以下吸煙者比例最高的國家之一，除了平裝措施外，都蘭還宣布，將在游樂場和載有未滿12歲乘客的汽車內(nèi)禁止吸煙。

　　2012年，澳大利亞強(qiáng)迫銷售的所有卷煙都裝在單調(diào)的橄欖褐色煙盒內(nèi)，上面帶著同樣的字體和大幅圖片健康警語。

　　都蘭的計(jì)劃是確保煙盒“形狀相同，大小相同，顏色同樣，排版相同”，使卷煙對年輕吸煙者的吸引力減少。

　　然而，與澳大利亞不同，法國品牌仍將在煙包上，“但限于一個(gè)非常謹(jǐn)慎規(guī)定的大小，一直在煙包上的相同地方，”據(jù)該計(jì)劃顯示。

　　都蘭還宣布在某些公共場禁止流行的電子煙。

France to go for plain cigarette packets in 2016

　　PARIS, France - France will introduce plain cigarette packaging in 2016, Health Minister Marisol Touraine said on Wednesday, October 8, as the country seeks to stub out high smoking rates in under-16s.

　　Following the successful introduction of plain packs in Australia, which the government there says has reduced consumption, Touraine announced a raft of measures last month to tackle the scourge of smoking, which kills 200 people a day in France.

　　One of the main planks of the strategy was plain packaging, which "should be in tobacconists at the beginning of the year 2016", the minister told French radio.

　　France has one of the highest rates of under-16s smokers in Europe and, in addition to the plain packaging measures, Touraine also announced that smoking would be banned in playgrounds and in cars with passengers under 12.

　　In 2012, Australia forced all cigarettes to be sold in identical, olive-brown packets bearing the same typeface and largely covered with graphic health warnings.

　　Touraine's plan is to ensure cigarette packets are "the same shape, same size, same color, same typeset" to make smoking less attractive to young smokers.

　　Unlike Australia, however, French brands will remain on the packets "but limited to a very discreet and defined size, always on the same place on the packet," according to the plan.

　　Touraine also announced the banning of popular electronic cigarettes in certain public places.

　　Smoking is the main cause of death in France, with 73,000 people dying each year of tobacco-related illnesses.

　　Approximately 13 million people smoke in France every day out of a total population of around 66 million.
