The content of this test document is based on information from the review of tobacco labels found at http://www.tobaccolabels.org/ but the organisation has been changed to reflect the purpose of this site, and the current version contains some evidence not covered in that review.

The document is intended to provide evidence that policy makers and other practitioners can use to prepare arguments for placing health warnings on tobacco packaging. Virtually all the research has been done on tobacco packs, but much of the evidence can be generalised to other forms of tobacco packaging.

The document is organised around two major themes: A.  What Can Health Warnings do (what effects can they have) ?, and B. How do they work (what influences their effectiveness) ?
