Which provide an indication of the thinking of tobacco companies about where the packaging get-up may be trending, as well as perhaps giving the producers of the Mad Men television series pause for thought about their own intellectual property rights . These trademarks would seem to have a promotional aspect that would help negate the health warning on existing packets of cigarettes, should they be used.
The trademark register is also cluttered with many registrations of cigarette packaging and word marks that are probably no longer being used. For instance,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], BAT is still maintaining Strand as No.10699 dating from 1911 and Craven as registration No.2933 dating from 1906,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which are seemingly no longer being used,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], though it is interesting imagining smokers asking for Craven brand cigarettes.
Such registrations would probably be invalid, because any registration for a mark that has not been used generally in a continuous period of three years is liable to be removed from the register, if an application to do so is made by a third party. Pictorial warnings on tobacco products are set to get scarier. After almost a year of mild warnings, the government has decided to shift to more powerful messages.
Tobacco products will now carry pictures of mouth cancer, showing rotting teeth and lips. A notification was issued by the health ministry on March 5 and the new warnings will come into force from June 1. These would be implemented under the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products (Packaging and Labelling Amendment) Rules, 2010. The warnings show a real picture of mouth cancer with a caption tobacco causes mouth cancer.
Cigarette packs will carry the same picture with the caption smoking kills while chewing or smokeless products will carry the caption tobacco kills. The new warnings have been pretested for their effectiveness by the Voluntary Health Association of India (VHAI) and the Healis-Sekhsaria Institute for Public Health. This report shows that raising tobacco taxes is truly a win-win-win for the states.
It is a budget win that will help protect vital programs like health care and education,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a health win that will prevent kids from smoking and save lives, and a political win with the voters,said Matthew L. Myers, President of the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids. According to the national poll released with the report: * By a 67 percent to 31 percent margin, voters favor a $1 per pack increase in the state tobacco tax, with 53 percent saying they strongly support the tobacco tax increase.
This support crosses political lines, with a majority of Democrats (70 percent), Republicans (68 percent) and Independents (64 percent) favoring the increase. * Voters far prefer raising the state tobacco tax to other options for addressing state budget deficits. While 60 percent supported increasing the tobacco tax for this purpose,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], more than 70 percent opposed every other option presented, including higher state income, gasoline and sales taxes and cuts to education,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], health care,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], transportation and law enforcement programs.
