CTP needs to work on issuing its foundational rules before setting on other major priorities such as product standards. For example, the section 915 rule was supposed to issue in 2013 as required under the FD&C Act. It absolutely disappoints me that almost 10 yrs later that CTP has not even issued the draft rule for this regulation. While | have an appreciation of the staffing shortages and political environment of issuing regulations, CTP has lost sight of the foundation it needs to be successful and have the foundation to then move onto the building blocks needed to protect the US population from tobacco related diseases.
