April 18, 2008 - FDA Commissioner Eschenbach the FDA "clearly has a role" in addressing the public health problem of tobacco.. Congress is considering having the agency regulate tobacco, but the FDA "does not have the infrastructure in place" or the technical expertise, Eschenbach said. Such authority would require a bigger budget and more resources. (FDA chief lays out plans for healing the agency, Sabine Vollmer, 4/18/2008) October 5, 2007 - FDA Head Eschenbach: 'No' to Tobacco Cigarettes too "inherently dangerous" to regulate; would "undermine mission."
