HARAP thanks the President for listening to its inputs and not vetoing the VNNP bill. This is a step in the right direction to allow adult Filipino smokers the chance to access less harmful alternatives to cigarettes. We call on the Government and the public to work together to ensure the proper implementation of the VNNP Law specifically its provisions restricting the sale of these products to minors and the requirment of product registration with appropriate standards before these are sold in our country.
