PREVENTING AND COMBATING THE EFFECTS OF THE CONSUMPTION OF TOBACCO PRODUCTS IN ROMANIAN PRISONS

Abstract

As settled in the Frame-convention WHO for the tobacco control, the first treaty negotiated under the auspices of the World Organization of Health, any person has at the highest standards of health protection against the awfully damaging effect that the producing, consuming and selling of tobacco can have against every person’s health. The measures settled in this case by the National Administration of Prisons can be considered a good start in implementing the legislation in this matter in all Romanian prisons. Surely we expect that in the future the above-mentioned authority shall intensify and diversify the actions taken in this matter, as a result of adapting and modernizing prisons at the present day requirements.
