“Reports that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accepted grants from foreign anti-tobacco groups have alarmed the International Network of Nicotine Consumer Organisations (INNCO). INNCO said its members were concerned about “the growing influence of foreign grants on health regulators that may adversely affect the campaign to reduce the harm caused by combustible cigarettes in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), including the Philippines.” In particular, INNCO pointed out that some nongovernment organizations backed by the Bloomberg Initiative had some influence on health regulators like the FDA.”
