Government proposal to Parliament for an Act amending the Tobacco Act

The Proposal proposes amendments to the Tobacco Act. It would be made easier for housing communities to prohibit smoking by their own decision. The Tobacco Act would also be amended in certain other respects: certain cannabinoids would be prohibited in tobacco products and their substitutes, the opportunities for the Finnish Supervisory Agency to collect supervisory fees would be secured, and the agency would be assigned tasks related to the traceability system for tobacco products. In addition, provisions concerning appeals would be clarified.

The Act is intended to enter into force at the beginning of 2027
