Abstract: Section 3 of the Comprehensive Smokeless Tobacco Health Education Act of 1986 (the Smokeless Tobacco Act), as amended by section 204 of the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (the Tobacco Control Act), requires, among other things, that all smokeless tobacco product packages and advertisements bear one of four required warning statements. This information collection--the submission to FDA of warning plans for smokeless tobacco products--is statutorily mandated. The Smokeless Tobacco Act requires that the warnings be displayed on packaging and advertising for each brand of smokeless tobacco "in accordance with a plan submitted by the tobacco product manufacturer, importer, distributor, or retailer" to, and approved by, FDA. The warning plans will be reviewed by FDA to determine whether the companies' plans for the equal distribution and display of warning statements on packaging and the quarterly rotation of warning statements in advertising for each brand requires, among other things, that all smokeless tobacco product packages and advertisements bear one of four required warning statements.
