Is another cigarette ban on the cards after govt moves to appeal? Fita responds
702 is simulcasting The Midday Report with Mandy Wiener on CapeTalk this week.
The Western Cape High Court decision found against Regulation 45 of the laws governing the State of Disaster Management Act and declared the government's decision to ban the sale of tobacco products unconstitutional.
This week government declared its intention to appeal the ruling and this has raised concerns about another tobacco ban in South Africa, says Mandy Wiener.
Mandy talks to the chairperson at Fair-trade Independent Tobacco Association (Fita) Sinenhlanhla Mnguni to find out if this is feasible.
