The Tobacco Control Act (Public Law 111-31) amends the FD&C Act to grant FDA authority to regulate the manufacture, marketing, and distribution of tobacco products to protect the public health and to reduce tobacco use by minors. Section 904(d)(1) of the FD&C Act states, "Not later than 3 years after the date of enactment of the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act, and annually thereafter, the Secretary shall publish in a format that is understandable and not misleading to a lay person, and place on public display (in a manner determined by the Secretary) the list [of harmful or potentially harmful constituents] established under [section 904(e)]" of the Act. Section 904(e) of the FD&C Act directs FDA to establish "a list of harmful and potentially harmful constituents, including smoke constituents, to health in each tobacco product by brand, and by quantity in each brand and subbrand." On January 31, 2011, FDA announced the availability of a final guidance representing the Agency's current thinking on the meaning of the term "harmful and potentially harmful constituent" (see 76 FR 5387). On April 3, 2012, FDA published a notice in the Federal Register establishing a list of the harmful and potentially harmful constituents (HPHCs) in tobacco products and tobacco smoke (see 77 FR 20034).
FDA's Center for Tobacco Products requires data on how consumers may respond to information about HPHCs in order to determine the appropriate format of the HPHC list provided to the public.
