SROs 22(KE)/2015 and 23(KE)/2015
COMMENTS: SROs 22(KE)/2015 and 23(KE)/2015 were originally issued to increase the size of the health warnings to 85% of both front and back of cigarette packages. Additionally, the SROs prescribed rules regarding the rotation, manner, look, and design of the single health warning. The original effective date was March 30, 2015, but implementation was delayed several times. Ultimately, the size of the health warnings was amended to require warnings covering 50% of cigarette packs and outer packaging beginning June 1, 2018.
To the best of our knowledge, all laws provided here are in effect as of October 31, 2024 unless otherwise noted.
