WRITTEN QUESTION E-3207/02

by Kathleen Van Brempt (PSE) to the Commission

(12 November 2002)

Subject: Nicotine sweets

A number of tobacco manufacturers, including British American Tobacco, have announced that they will
shortly be marketing a peppermint containing as much nicotine as a cigarette. The manufacturers have
developed the cigalett as a way of providing smokers, who face a growing number of smoking bans, with
nicotine that they can use at any time and in any place.

What is the Commission’s reaction to this new product?

Will the Commission ban the cigalett?

If not, will Commission warn the public about the addictive effects of this sweet?

What is the position with regard to the labelling of the cigalett?

Answer given by Mr Byrne on behalf of the Commission

(17 December 2002)

The Commission is collecting the information it needs to answer the question. It will communicate its
findings as soon as possible.

WRITTEN QUESTION E-3282/02

by Wilhelm Piecyk (PSE) to the Council

(19 November 2002)

Subject: Fund for compensation for pollution caused by oil or hazardous and noxious substances in

European waters

On 12 December 1999 the oil tanker ‘ERIKA’ sank off the French coast, the oil spillage polluting large
areas of Brittany.

In response, the Commission submitted at the end of December 2000, as part of the ‘ERIKA II’ package, a
proposal for a Parliament-Council regulation establishing a fund for compensation of oil pollution damage
in European waters (1).

On 14 June 2001, Parliament held its first-reading vote on the report submitted by Mr Esclopé (2).

1.

Has the Council already examined the Commission proposal and, if so, at what level?

2. When does the Council intend to adopt a common position on this?

3. What difficulties are there within the Council as regards adopting a common position?
