Dear [Recipient's Name],

Re: Request for Enforcement of Tobacco Laws and Regulations

I am writing to bring to your attention the need for stricter enforcement of tobacco laws and regulations in our state/country. As a concerned citizen and advocate for public health, I am compelled to seek your agency's assistance in ensuring that these laws are effectively implemented and enforced.

As you may be aware, tobacco use is a significant public health concern, causing preventable deaths, illnesses, and economic burdens. Despite the existence of laws and regulations aimed at reducing tobacco use, the industry continues to exploit loopholes and undermine efforts to protect public health.

Specifically, I am concerned about the following issues:

• Lack of effective enforcement of tobacco advertising and promotion restrictions
• Inadequate regulation of e-cigarettes and other alternative nicotine products
• Failure to implement and enforce smoke-free laws in public places and workplaces
• Inadequate monitoring and reporting of tobacco-related illnesses and deaths

I urge your agency to take immediate action to address these concerns and ensure that tobacco laws and regulations are enforced effectively. This includes:

• Conducting regular inspections and monitoring of tobacco retailers and manufacturers to ensure compliance with advertising and promotion restrictions
• Implementing stricter regulations on e-cigarettes and alternative nicotine products to prevent youth access and misuse
• Providing adequate resources and support to local authorities to enforce smoke-free laws in public places and workplaces
• Improving data collection and reporting on tobacco-related illnesses and deaths to inform public health policy and interventions

I would appreciate it if you could provide me with an update on the steps your agency is taking to address these concerns and ensure the effective enforcement of tobacco laws and regulations.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,

Adewole
