Dear Olga Loos,

Thank you for your patience.

I have checked the two notifications this morning and discovered that both appear in active list again, which is hard to explain.

Now, the relevant regulatory information has been highlighted for you - § 8(4) of The Tobacco Act (https://www.riigiteataja.ee/en/eli/503052023002/consolide).

Could you, please, help me understand how does white sugar (57-50-1) work as a solvent in pipe tobacco composition, please?

The marketing research studies that have been presented with the above submissions do not include any pipe tobacco related market research.

Would you be able to upload the latest market research regarding pipe tobacco, please.

Please, note, the indication whether the REACH registration number is available for ingredients is also required under §10 (1) point 1 of the Tobacco Act.

Best regards

Eve Forsyth

Dear Sir/ Madam,

I hope you are doing fine.

I’m still looking for the two products they are market Inactive in the EU-CEG system.

The products contain a substance that are prohibited in accordance with § 8(4) of The Tobacco Act.

To ensure compliance and avoid future complaints, we are seeking clarification on the exact nature of this issue. Understanding the specific reasons for the prohibition of these substances will enable us to update our system regulations accordingly for Estonia.

Your prompt assistance in providing details on the prohibited substances and any relevant regulatory information would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
