Public Health (Tobacco and Other Products) (Consequential Amendments and Transitional Provisions) Act 2023

This document provides a summary of the transitional arrangements for tobacco product requirements, including plain packaging, prohibited terms, and tobacco product accessories. The transitional arrangements apply various sections of the old Tobacco Products Advertising Prohibition Act 1992 and the Tobacco Plain Packaging Act 2011 to tobacco products that do not comply with the new requirements. The key points include:

Certain items will be taken to comply with new requirements during the main transition period
Retailers are allowed to continue selling tobacco products in non-compliant packaging during the transition period
* Transitional arrangements will apply after the end of the main transition period for new tobacco product requirements, including standardization, prohibited tobacco product accessories, and health promotion inserts.

I hope this helps.
