(See Burden Statement on last page.)
FAMILY SMOKING PREVENTION AND TOBACCO CONTROL ACT
On June 22, 2009, the President signed the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (Tobacco
Control Act) (Public Law 111-31) into law. The Tobacco Control Act amended the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act).
STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS
Section 910(a)(1) of the FD&C Act – Defines a new tobacco product as “(A) any tobacco product (including
those products in test markets) that was not commercially marketed in the United States as of February 15,
2007; or (B) any modification (including a change in design, any component, any part, or any constituent,
including a smoke constituent, or in the content, delivery or form of nicotine, or any other additive or ingredient)
of a tobacco product where the modified product was commercially marketed in the United States after
February 15, 2007.”
Section 910(a)(2) of the FD&C Act – Premarket review required for new tobacco products. There are three
pathways to achieve marketing authorization. Substantial Equivalence is one of the three pathways.
Section 910(a)(3) of the FD&C Act – “Substantial equivalence” means, with respect to the tobacco product
being compared to the predicate tobacco product, that the Secretary by order has found that the tobacco
product ‘‘(i) has the same characteristics as the predicate tobacco product; or (ii) has different characteristics
and the information submitted contains information, including clinical data if deemed necessary by the
Secretary, that demonstrates that it is not appropriate to regulate the product under this section because the
product does not raise different questions of public health.”
