Hi Courtney
See Wilson et al. 2006 What potential has tobacco control for reducing
health inequalities? The New Zealand situation

It briefly discusses this issue and cites several other papers.
And tobacco use by New Zealand's indigenous (and socioeconomically
disadvantaged) Maori population is the focus of a current inquiry:

Subject: [SDOH] Impact of Tobacco Taxes on Health Inequalities
I'm wondering if anyone on the list has resources for the impact of
increasing tobacco taxes on health inequalities.
Thanks,
