The abolition of cigarette machines is under consideration in Austria

Debate began on the abolition of public cigarette machines in Austria, politicians have so far declined to comment on this issue – the Der Standard Austrian newspaper wrote.

Apart from the ban on cigarette machines, the Austrian Pulmonology Society (ÖGP) and several organizations dealing with child and youth protection were also involved. Manfred Neuberger, a professor at the Vienna Medical University, called the measure essential. According to the justification, half of the EU countries have already dismounted the tobacco-selling machines. (MTI)
