The discussion was on the major issues facing our industry, and the whole of our industry attendees agreed that unions need to be done the following:
1) Wholesalers representatives to proceed with immediate implementation of the Law 3943/2011, article 47 and paragraph 6.
2) The tobacco companies have to make an immediate appreciation of their trade marks under the agreement made with the Ministry.
3) Our suggestion was to have a rational distribution and increase the after tax rate of 50% for Tabacco Shops Kiosks Network – Distributors station operator, to provide sustainability in our operations. (Provided that our partners will first implement the Law 3943/2011).
4) it is imperative to strive to be safeguards sustainability in the stands – tobacconists.
5) were informed about how many colleagues have now lost their jobs (2,350 colleagues), and of course have remained unemployed. Whether we all Associations – Links – Clubs – Associations could help to avoid adding to the list of unemployed and our other colleagues.

9) There was a reference to the jurisdiction of the license after the existence of Kallikratis Municipalities, municipal charges, the existence of smuggling, trafficking of other products as well as the legal framework for products sold.
10) As for the proposal of the Thessaloniki Society for restructuring the overall taxation, we consider the issue on competition tobacco industry as set and bears no relation to the extent and distribution of after tax value, which is determined by factors other than taxation e.g. retail price fixing manufactured tobacco (it would be useful, but excluding unknown whether a possible overall decrease of tax at 2009 levels).
11) When the industry Peripterouchon tobacconists Greece together with the manufacturing process of tobacco far exceeds the 150,000 thousand families. When our country is in a great and profound crisis, when one after another booth puts padlock when our companies are heavily indebted to the banking system when our several businesses located in Tiresias, when our our huge operating costs leading to extinction, then there needs to be unity and large conglomerate in order to meet the great challenges of everyday life.
12) were informed about the issue of kapnoapagorefsis and coordinating O.P.K.E. the G.S.E.V.E.E and the IMNCP to avert the great danger lurking by a total ban on smoking. We asked if this time can not be amendment to freeze for at least two years. For this our idea is to continue with the protests with other agencies as were until yesterday, in order to prevent this situation that can put us in very great difficulties.

The sector of Peripterouchon tobacconists Greece together with the manufacturing process of the tobacco industry far exceeds the 150,000 thousand families. When our country is located in a large and deep crisis, when one after another company puts padlock when our small and very small business are indebted to the banking system when it assures us that a study of the Institute of Small and Medium Enterprises (IME ) of GSEBEE within the next year threatened to shut 175,000 companies, when 80% of small micro-enterprises are in Tiresias, when every day there is a great weakness payment you need to be remedial modifications Law 3730/2008 in order to have sustainable businesses without unemployed. Our proposal is:
• To undertake the replacement of Articles 3 and 6 of Law. 3730/2008 to give the possibility to define organizational and spatial spaces will prohibit or allow smoking.
