CTP Announces Five-Year Strategic Plan with Little New Policy

By Cody Carden | December 26, 2023

Washington, DC: On December 18, 2023, the US Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Center for Tobacco Products (CTP) released a five-year Strategic Plan, setting out its current thinking about priorities in tobacco science and regulation. The Strategic Plan is intended to address criticisms made by the Reagan-Udall Foundation (RUF) one year ago about operational effectiveness at the Center. Despite engaging in a lengthy process of public engagement in the wake of that report, the plan released today by FDA contains little new policy and does not adopt many of the key recommendations.
