# The Tobacco Advertising and Promotion (Sponsorship Transitional Provisions) (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2003

S.S.I. 2003/265 · made 29 May 2003

These Regulations amend the Tobacco Advertising and Promotion (Sponsorship Transitional Provisions) (Scotland) Regulations 2003 in order to clarify the conditions under which there is a time limited exception for sponsorship of exceptional global events. “Exceptional global event” is defined in regulation 2 of those Regulations to mean an event or activity that takes place in at least two continents and three sovereign states. The clarification makes it clear that the reference to “advertisements” in the conditions which apply to the exception is a reference to tobacco advertisements.
