- W2608708405 abstract "Issue addressed: Maintaining the rate of retail compliance with legislation prohibiting the sale of cigarettes to minors at 90% or better over a number of years has proven to be a remarkably effective strategy in reducing adolescent smoking rates. Methods: Retail compliance with prohibition of sales to minors was monitored through a series of undercover compliance surveys between 1993 and 1999. Compliance rates were affected by a campaign aimed at increasing retailer awareness of their obligations under the law and well publicised prosecutions. Four high schools were surveyed in 1993, 1996, and 1999 and the results of students aged 12 to 17 are paralleled with the respective Secondary School drug and alcohol surveys of 1993 and 1996. Results: The overall proportion of 12 to 17 year olds reporting at least monthly smoking dropped from 25.9% in 1993 to 22.7% in 1996 and to 17.1% in 1999. Over the 6 year project there has been approximately a one third reduction in the number of regular adolescent smokers in our surveys. In contrast the NSW proportions of smokers increased a statistically insignificant amount between 1993 and 1996. In 1996 only the 12 and 13 year olds had been substantially affected, but after a further three years of 90% retail compliance reduced smoking rates were seen in all age groups. Reductions were seen in all categories of frequency of smoking, but the greatest reduction was seen in the categories of smokers who smoked 1 to 5 cigarettes a day or less. So what?: Reducing adolescent smoking is an area of the highest priority. Maintaining high retailer compliance is a strategy which has been shown to be effective both overseas and now in Australia. This study suggests that initial high retail compliance will affect 12 and 13 year old smoking rates, but will only produce substantial effects up to the 17 year age group if the compliance rate is maintained for a number of years. This strategy, and further policy to support it, such as tobacco retailer licensing, should be undertaken in all areas. (author abstract)" @default.
