Lords amendments 49 and 50 provide additional powers to allow for the regulation of technology in vapes. This responds to the emergence of concerning examples of technology being used to make vapes more enticing to young people, including puff leaderboards and rewards linked to increased usage. Lords amendment 80 places a requirement on the Secretary of State to review the operation of the Act within four to seven years of Royal Assent, and to lay a report before Parliament setting out the conclusions of the review.
