Abstract
Although many countries have implemented strategies for
reducing tobacco use at individual and population level, no
country to date has adopted a truly comprehensive control
programme. In addition, the tobacco industry and the strategies
it uses to counteract policies on tobacco control and thereby
maintain and develop its commercial markets have both
continued to evolve. All communities therefore face at least
some “unfinished business” in relation to tobacco control, and
those working in smoking cessation need to be familiar with the
necessary policy responses.
