Main findings
• The ten years of FCTC have seen some remarkabledevelopments in global tobacco control.
• The FCTC has undoubtedly played a critical role as catalyst and framework for action.
• The FCTC has played a pivotal role in countries whereeffective tobacco control was nor previously in place, and helped to strengthen to strengthen policies in countries where it was in place before ratification.
• The FCTC has contributed to reductions in prevalenceamong Parties that have implemmented FCTC policiesat high levels, thus contributing to reductions in tobaccorelated mortality and morbidity.

OBSTACLESThere are substantial remaining obstacles, especially
- Aggressive action by the tobacco industry.
- Need for continuous recognition of important needs to act further.
- Recognition the the FCTC applies to all sectors of government.
- Low awareness for non-cigarette products, insufficient action on
vulnerable groups and insufficient support for low
and middle income countries.

RECOMMENDATIONS
• Although the FCTC has made a critical contribution to global tobaccocontrol, the Parties should strongly support action towards swifter and stronger implementation.
• Article 5.3. shouold be fully observed by all sectors of government.
• Increasing tax and aligning the taxation with article 6 guidelines is the single most effective tobacco control measure.
• Individual countries, especially LMICs should be provided
more technical support in key areas (eg. taxation) and
to respond to emerging challenges (esp. non-cigarette,
new products).
• Parties should develop national surveillance systems
to assess trends, to evaluate measures and to make
full use of the information.
