THIS IS WHERE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE GPS ON TPD In this article Vape Compliance Ltd have gone full out to cover some of what we have encountered along the TPD trail. The clock has ticked rather quickly in countdown to notifications, I hope when reading this, shivers do not down your spine and that you have prepared your best justifications to the member states going begging. I say begging because half of them are so wrapped up with tobacco bonds their governments are ignoring the new science and public opinion regarding the E-Cig revolution. Those of you who sat and completed the XML file creator for submission, I bet you are looking forward to round two, for us we bulk uploaded nearly 5000 notifications into ten different member states, reported on almost half a million CAS numbers and glad to welcome this festive season in before next years workload increases. Cross border sales look as if they will give parity of notification and a common ground is one we should establish especially when looking across the pond and the potential strangle hold the tobacco industry has on vaping. The sad thing is that so many people are unaware of this fact and many will shake heads, in disbelief and in shame. We will not be talking questions in this issue because lets face it… the game is up. You are either ready or not. No more coddling and convincing clients, consumers, politicians, and regulatory boards to change or step up. Time is up on hitting the ground compliant and we want to show you what we have done to make that possible and what we have been through along this quest! VAPOUROUND MAGAZINE USA 37
