How Tobacco companies violate laws
Tobacco companies aggressively block, weaken, and undermine policies designed to protect public health and reduce tobacco use, and at times they have been found to work outside of countries’ laws. In multiple instances tobacco companies have been found to have violated the law.
In Mexico, government agency responsible for enforcing the tobacco control law (COFEPRIS) detected points of sale in Mexico City with tobacco advertising for British American Tobacco products that violate the National Tobacco Control Law (May 2015).
