A newly revised version of the Political Declaration (Rev.2) is now in circulation among Member States in New York, following multiple rounds of informal consultations and bilateral meetings. Rev.2 shows that while some priorities from The Call to Lead on NCDs have been retained, critical areas have been weakened or removed altogether. According to the latest intelligence, critical, evidence-based measures such as health taxes are under serious threat. Targets remain vulnerable, with some Member States opposing their inclusion and others still holding reservations.
