The Australasian Professional Society on Alcohol and other Drugs' submission to the consultation draft National Tobacco Strategy 2022–2030.

Tobacco use continues to be a leading cause of death and morbidity globally. At the core of Australia's response to tobacco‐related harms is the National Tobacco Strategy which highlights a national collaborative framework to reduce prevalence, and associated health, social and economic impacts of tobacco use. A draft National Tobacco Strategy (2022–2030) has recently been released for consultation and as members of the Australasian Professional Society on Alcohol and other Drugs' Special Interest Group for Smoking Cessation Professionals we provide a commentary on key successes of the previous National Tobacco Strategy, and suggestions for improvement areas to strengthen Australia's policy response to tobacco and e‐cigarette‐related issues.
