Sorry for my reaction one hour ago, but human being can also show how stupid he can be on this earth!! I agree to ban nocive substances if they are proven to be nocive for the community, by facts and figures, and no if other alternative is available. Labelling can be one way to informe users to avoid mis-use (at least according to laywers only!!)
Cigaret and Tobacco are the first to be banned, but the lobbying of tobacco industry is so rich and powerful that as all human beings are sensitive to corruption, no one is strong and honest enough to say NO to the industry !!. because Tobacco IS NOCIVE and must be banned. Cadmium and lead, yes in specific usages and circumstances can be nocive, but they are natural substances, like uranium is, although highly nocive, but not banned. However we cannot disinfect our obsolete nuclear plants today !!! Look at Japan !!
The advantage Europa has over USA, in my career in the medical and pharmaceutical industry is that Europe has scientific sounds and thinking, while USA is stupidely focused on paperworks and principles. So decisions in Europe in these fields have proven to be much better validated and supported. Just look how OGM's have ben proven to be safe, this is really so poor, non scientifically done and misoriented !!! that I personnally find them very unsafe and dangerous as their safety, never demonstrated by long term studies on immunity, only pushed by industry for profit making.
Therefore please request for the European people at Brussels to provide all the data making lead in tin figures so nocives to be included as a banned product as said before = number of reported cases of ingestion, poisening, by country, by year, even hospitals, over the past 20 years and not just a theorical thinking in the air, or dream as these people could do in their luxury environnent. How many cases they have theselve watched, testimonies they have received, complaints, on poisening, deaths, caused by ingestions of flat figures Question them on what is a tin flat figure even !!!
Science is based on facts and figures, everything else is religion, faith, dreams, hopes, not acceptable here as suppporting argument to setup lawas and restrictions = this is called dictature, nt democracy !!
Cadmium and lead are not safe substances, but sugar also is not and any drug, or even natural substances, if used ecxcessively and in uncontrolled conditions. Adding "Tobacco can kill' on cigaret package is not an excuse for industry t sel cigarets, it is a criminal act !! intended to KILL people against money, but no government would act against this because lobbying spend billions dollars to "buy" the legislaters to accept these poisons. Tin flats figures don't have the billions euros to spent to corrupt our legislators on the same way, and these legislators ignore even what a flat tin figure is, for what purpose, by who it is used. They just live in their world, closed, aseptic, reacting only to theory, not to practices.
This what makes me so disappointed and reacting. Sorry but animals don't behave so stupidely !!
