The Australian legal system has been extremely effective in addressing the issue of Tobacco smoking in Australia and has made very effective law reformation in this area.Traditionally, the smoking of tobacco was a norm in society, however extensive scientific research correlated this with being the biggest attributer for preventable deaths in our nation.
The Australian government responded to this revelation in an efficacious way by introducing the Tobacco Plain Packaging Act 2011 1which was implemented on December 1st 2011 and was the first of its kind in the world. Under this new act, tobacco companies could no longer advertise their products in a positive way and were only allowed to package their products in khaki
