For those working toward Smokefree Aotearoa 2025, regulating the retail supply of tobacco is essential to help denormalise the product for the next generation, assist those trying to quit, and promote smokefree communities.
To frame the case, advocates need options for reducing supply that have a robust evidence base. Securing regulatory change will also need support from within the retailing sector.
