African-Americans, Hispanics, and
other racial and ethnic minorities.’’
In addition, section 906(d) of the act
(21 U.S.C. 387f(d)) gives the Secretary
authority to impose restrictions on the
advertising and promotion of a tobacco
product that the Secretary determines
are appropriate to protect the public
health.
Section 105(a) of the Tobacco Control
Act (21 U.S.C. 387f-1) requires the
Secretary to develop and publish an
action plan to enforce restrictions on the
sale, distribution, promotion, and
advertising of menthol and other
cigarettes to youth. The provision
requires that the Secretary develop this
plan in consultation with public health
organizations and other stakeholders
with demonstrated experience and
expertise in serving minority
communities. The action plan must also
include provisions designed to ensure
enforcement of the restrictions on the
sale, distribution, promotion, and
advertising of menthol and other
cigarettes to youth in minority
communities.
More information about tobacco
advertising, promotion, and marketing
to minority population groups will
assist FDA in implementing the public
health goals of the Tobacco Control Act.
To assist FDA in carrying out the
previously mentioned provisions in a
manner that will protect the public
health, FDA seeks information about the
advertising and promotion of tobacco
products to particular racial and ethnic
minority populations. A better
understanding of this advertising and
promotion will help FDA understand
what steps, if any, may be appropriate
under section 906(d) of the act. In
addition, we are requesting comments
that will assist the agency’s
development of an action plan regarding
enforcement of regulations on
advertising and promotion of menthol
and other cigarettes to youth generally
and to youth in minority communities.
FDA is also seeking information that
will assist the Tobacco Products
Scientific Advisory Committee in
understanding and developing
recommendations regarding the impact
of the use of menthol in cigarettes
among children, African-Americans,
Hispanics, and other racial and ethnic
minorities. A copy of the Tobacco
Control Act is available at http://
www.fda.gov/tobacco.
II. Request for Information
1. Product advertising and promotion
play a critical role in fostering brand
loyalty and communicating messages to
consumers. FDA is aware that messages
can be conveyed through a variety of

VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 220001

visual cues and that, historically,
messages about tobacco products have
been created to appeal to specific racial
and ethnic communities. Increased
understanding of such messaging will
assist FDA in determining what steps to
take, if any, regarding the sale,
distribution, advertising, and promotion
of tobacco products that may be
appropriate for the protection of public
health. We are therefore requesting
information on ways in which the
advertising and promotion of tobacco
products may affect tobacco use among
racial and ethnic minority populations.
2. In the Federal Register of March
19, 2010 (75 FR 13225), FDA published
final regulations restricting the sale and
distribution of cigarettes and smokeless
tobacco to protect children and
adolescents. Those regulations take
effect June 22, 2010. Therefore, FDA is
also seeking input specifically on
designing an action plan regarding
enforcement of the final regulations on
advertising and promotion of menthol
and other cigarettes to youth generally
and to youth in minority communities.
3. FDA is also requesting information
that will assist the Tobacco Products
Scientific Advisory Committee to better
understand, report on, and make
recommendations regarding the impact
of the use of menthol in cigarettes
among children, African-Americans,
Hispanics, and other racial and ethnic
minorities.
