In the application of these Regulations to cigarette packets that are not rectangular–

(a)

a requirement of regulation 4(1) or 6(3)(a) to carry a warning on the back face of, or a statement on the side of, a packet shall be construed as a requirement to carry the warning or statement on a conspicuous surface of the packet; and

(b)

a requirement of regulation 5(2)(d) or 6(3)(b) that a warning or statement cover an area amounting to a percentage of a surface shall be construed as a requirement that the warning or statement cover such an area of the surface on which it is printed that it is no less conspicuously displayed than would be required if the packet were rectangular.
