從加熱式菸品探討新興菸品之管制政策【本期企劃】 試閱
Regulatory Policies on New Types of Tobacco Products: Observation from Heated Tobacco Products
近年來,新型態菸品開始流通於市場,其中以電子煙與加熱式菸品最具有代表性。在過去幾年中,對於新興菸品之探討,已促使菸害防制法修法草案之產生,惟當前政策對於此種新興菸品採取之態度仍十分模糊,似禁止加熱式菸品進口臺灣,然禁止此等菸品製造、進口或使用之依據為何?仍有探討空間;再者,現行法規對於新興菸品之管制依據,包括菸酒管理法、菸害防制法與藥事法等,此等法律規範與新興菸品之關係為何,亦有詳究餘地。本文基於傳統菸品、電子煙與加熱式菸品三者之關係,相互比較其異同後,再進一步探討未來對於新興菸品中之加熱式菸品應採如何之管制政策。
Various new types of tobacco products are being released into the market recent years. Among them, heated tobacco products (HTPs) are the most representative. Regulations of HTPs are still vague in Taiwan. It seems that HTPs are prohibited under current policy; however, it’s unclear that how to make HTPs fit into existing regulatory schemes. It’s necessary to discuss further the regulations that ban the manufacture, import, and use of HTPs. Moreover, new types of tobacco products are currently regulated under Tobacco and Wine Management Act, Tobacco Hazards Prevention Act, and Pharmaceutical Affairs Law. The relations between those existing laws and new types of tobacco products need more detailed discussion and analysis. Based on the exploration of the similarities and differences among traditional cigarettes, electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) and HTPs, the future regulatory policies on HTPs will be discussed further this article.
