What the research says - Plain Packaging

Below is a short list of the current research (from 2014) on the success or otherwise of Plain Packaging of tobacco in Australia.  I do not intend in this blog to make any sort of value judgements or analysis of the articles below, other than to include only reports that are publicly available for all to read.  The data used in each report is not generally publicly available, but the methods by which that data is obtained is described in each case.

The order in which they are listed is simply the order in which I have come across the reports.  In some cases, reports were found through references form previous reports.  If you should come across other reports that you feel should validly be included here, then feel free to let me know in the comments below.
