Congratulations to the Australian Federal Government who today won their High Court battle with Big Tobacco. The High Court of Australia has deemed that the Federal Labor Government's "Plain Packaging" legislation is Constitutionally valid.
This is not only a win for the Government, but also for the health of the Australian population in general. Let's hope this encourages New Zealand and the United Kingdom as well as other countries to go down a similar path.
