Queensland's illegal tobacco crackdown shows results
Queensland's 10-day police blitz targeting illegal tobacco stores shut down nearly 150 outlets and seized 12 million cigarettes and thousands of vapes worth $15 million. The crackdown has resulted in a 50 per cent increase in legal tobacco sales, generating an additional $100 million in tax revenue over two years. Australian Border Force continues to combat illegal online tobacco sales despite the enforcement success.
