Finnish newspaper Helsingin Sanomat reports that the government decided to permit nicotine pouch flavours produced by a Stockholm -based company.

The paper alleged that a number of pouch flavour varieties produced by Habit Factory were included in the legislation at the behest of government partner the Swedish People's Party .

Habit Factory recently started up a nicotine pouch production factory in the Swedish -speaking town of Jakobstad .

Anna-Maja Henriksson said she was surprised that the social affairs and health ministry did not reach a solid decision on what flavours were considered meant for adults.

Grahn-Laasonen said that the NCP was not aware of where the list of suggested exempted flavours came from. "My team and I have refrained from meeting and receiving lobbying from actors in the tobacco and nicotine industry. It is a conscious decision and based on the interpretation of the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control ," Grahn-Laasonen said..
