These Regulations amend the Tobacco Advertising and Promotion (Display) (England) Regulations 2010 (the “Display Regulations”) and the Tobacco Advertising and Promotion (Specialist Tobacconists) (England) Regulations 2010 (the “Specialist Tobacconist Regulations”).
The Display Regulations provide for exemptions from the prohibition of tobacco displays imposed by section 7A(1) of the Tobacco Advertising and Promotion Act 2002 (“the Act”).

Regulation 2 substitutes in the Display Regulations new dates for their coming into force. By virtue of these Regulations, the Display Regulations will now come into force on 6th April 2012 for the purpose of large shops other than bulk tobacconists, and on 6th April 2015 for all other purposes.

They were to come into force on 1st October 2013.
