Chop Chop – Illegal tobacco issue worsening
The importation and sale of illegally imported tobacco is a worsening problem in NSW and the big tobacco companies are threatening to do something about.
Alarmed at what they see as government inaction, big tobacco have spoken about plans to launch a range of super cheap, legal cigarettes which could be sold for as little as $9 a pack.
Illegal tobacco – often referred to as chop chop – can be purchased ‘under the counter’ from dodgy retailers around the city for a fraction of the price of legally imported tobacco. Illegal sales have been detected 28 times around Sydney.
