National Tobacco Strategy
The National Tobacco Strategy is a policy framework for the Australian Government and state and territory governments to work together and in collaboration with non-government agencies to improve health and to reduce the social costs caused by tobacco.
The National Tobacco Strategy 2012-2018 has been developed by the Intergovernmental Committee on Drugs Standing Committee on tobacco as a sub-strategy under the National Drug Strategy 2010-2015.
At the 9 November 2012 meeting of the Standing Council on Health, the Commonwealth, state and territory Health Ministers endorsed the National Tobacco Strategy 2012-2018 and agreed to its release on the National Drug Strategy website.
