Opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee on the ‘Proposal for a Council Directive on the structure and rates of excise duty applied to manufactured tobacco (Codified version)’
COM(2007) 587 final
(2008/C 120/21)
On 24 October 2007 the Council decided to consult the European Economic and Social Committee, under Article 262 of the Treaty establishing the European Community, on the
Proposal for a Council Directive on the structure and rates of excise duty applied to manufactured tobacco (Codified version).
Since the Committee unreservedly endorses the content of the proposal and feels that it requires no comment on its part, it decided, at its 440th plenary session of 12 and 13 December 2007 (meeting of 12 December 2007), by 129 votes in favour with six abstentions, to issue an opinion endorsing the proposed text.
Brussels, 12 December 2007.
The President
of the European Economic and Social Committee
Dimitris DIMITRIADIS
