Not sure what is meant there, not even sure if the 2 mg is true or not. Here is the press release of the meeting of June 21st: http://www.consilium.europa.eu/uedocs/cms_data/docs/pressdata/en/lsa/137571.pdf

Malta announces candidate to replace Dalli: Official: Tonio Borg nominated European Commissioner - to stay on as minister until confirmation process is concluded - timesofmalta.com Don't know if mr Toni Borg will be approved of by the EU Parliament, but he has a bit of a shady past (or is that...

I have the impression that the figures are misrepresented. For a true evaluation of the price per pack and amount, the number of cigarettes smoked should be per smoker not per capita. For the Netherlands the listed 801 cigarettes should read 5110 cigarettes per smoker per year (an average of 14...

I'm confused: Dalli denies resignation pre-announced by Barroso (full statement) | New Europe According to mr Dali, he did not resign

how sad, and just when I was starting to like the guy, uhh..............never mind. Very good news indeed, not only for THR but also for the EU as a whole, since it shows that not all is acceptable.

Well if they did falsefy the report, they forgot about the references mentioned in the report. I know, the casual reader might overlook them easily, but the report can be pieced together again to it's original form. Quite the challenge, but someone with lots of time might give it a try. But...

@tom09 I think there's a good change it will be general, since there is something like the equality principle which means that equals (products) should be treated equal. @Jeann True, the MoH still has the next legal step available. They can ask the Court of Cassation (don't know if there...

Today, the court in The Hague confirmed the earlier verdict that e-sigs are not to be classified as medicinal. A slight setback is that this verdict is specific for products imported by UTVG. For those who read Dutch: www.rechtspraak.nl/Organisatie/Gerechtsh...ngeneesmiddelen.aspx (sorry...

In een uitspraak van de rechter in een kort geding, aangespannen tegen de Nederlandse staat, is de beslissing van VWS om nicotine houdende liquids te classificeren als geneesmiddel van tafel geveegd als onwettig. Als gevolg is de import en handel per direct weer toegestaan (mits er geen reclame...

The decision of the Dutch Department of Health to classify nicotine containing liquids as medicinal products was over ruled in court. The decision was, according to the judge, unlawful. As a consequence the judge ordered the DoH to immediately allow import and sales of nicotine containing...

And Electricman gives prove to the contrary (through the link he mentions):

I would suggest to get both consumers and vendors organised and not wait untill it is too late. Germany was taken by surprise and the vendors had to organise as quickly as possible and the German consumer association wasn't up and running yet and remained silent. In the Netherlands, the...

Well, what can I say, except direct your attention to the motto of the Ministery of Health, which can be found at their website: Nederland gezond en wel. Dat is het motto van het ministerie van Volksgezondheid, Welzijn en Sport (VWS). Het is de ambitie van VWS om iedereen zo lang mogelijk...

Thanks DC2, that's what I thought too. The mere fact that the active ingredient could have an effect is not enough reason to declare it a medicin. And that is exactly what the Minister stated in her decision, because eliquids contain nicotine they must be a medicin. We will have lawyers have a...

Maybe this is the wrong topic, but is there someone judicial savvy that can help me interprete this ruling of the EU High Court: http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=CELEX:62008J0027:EN:HTML

I guess the gloves are off in Germany now. The City of Hannover, Germany has banned the use of esigs in Hannover's City Hall, both visitors and employees are no longer allowed to use esigs. Media (mewspapers and TV) are already all over the place, misinforming the public about the safety of...

thanks for the support guys, much appreciated. to set things straight , drugs are not legal in Holland , the use of softdrugs (and possesssion of small quantities ) is allowed. growing, harvesting and selling is illegal . Harddrugs are by any means illegal . back on ttopic , the minister has...

Well, there's the problem for European vapers. The internal Dutch market is relatively small, the larger sellers get 75% of their turnover from exporting to other European countries, where nicotine containing liquids are already considered pharmaceutical. It's only because of the free internal...

Well, any suggestion is appreciated

Klopt, er staan een aantal onduidelijkheden en fouten in de brief, maar met het oog op de te nemen stappen gaan wij (Stelda) daar nog niet op in.
