Tobacco and Vapes BillContribution
The Bill includes a wide range of powers to regulate nicotine products, including vapes. That is very welcome, as usage among young people is far too high and marketing is widespread. It is hardly possible to travel on the tube these days without seeing advertising for nicotine pouches. While such products are certainly less harmful than smoking, and in the case of vapes they are very effective for smoking cessation, their marketing often presents them as lifestyle products for recreational use.
