The law does not require disclosure to the government because there is comprehensive ban on advertising, promotion and sponsorship. FCTC Art. 13 Guidelines para. 43 provides, however, that while the requirement for this kind of disclosure applies only to Parties that do not have a comprehensive ban, all Parties should implement the disclosure requirement in that it may help Parties that consider that they have a comprehensive ban to identify any advertising, promotion or sponsorship not covered by the ban or engaged in by the tobacco industry in contravention of the ban.

To align with FCTC Art. 13 and the FCTC Art. 13 Guidelines, the law should require disclosure of specified information on tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship and on tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship expenditures in accordance with FCTC Art. 13.4(d) and FCTC Art. 13 Guidelines para. 41.

The law prohibits most forms of tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship; therefore, this requirement is generally not applicable.

The law does allow, however, the demonstration of tobacco products or consumption of tobacco products solely for the purpose of informing the public about the harms of tobacco, and such audiovisual works must contain social advertising about the harms of consumption of tobacco immediately before or during the work.

The law aligns with FCTC Art. 13 and the FCTC Art. 13 Guidelines with respect to this health warnings requirement.

The law does not provide for public availability of information, as it does not require disclosure by the tobacco industry.

To align with FCTC Art. 13 and the FCTC Art. 13 Guidelines, the law should impose a mandatory disclosure requirement on the tobacco industry in accordance with FCTC Art. 13.4(d) and FCTC Art. 13 Guidelines paras. 41 and 42.
