Debate

Tobacco and Vapes Bill

Contribution

Lords amendments 89 to 91 bring forward the commencement of the Bill’s updated definition of a tobacco product in existing legislation from two months after Royal Assent to the day of Royal Assent, which reflects the Government’s position that the existing definition captures all tobacco products currently on the market. There is therefore no need for any notice to be given before the new definition comes into force.
