My current legislative priority, approved by Government on 10 September, is the further regulation of nicotine inhaling products. These proposals are now being drafted with the Office of the Attorney General. The General Scheme for a Bill contains a range of proposals to reduce youth use of nicotine inhaling products including a ban on disposable vapes.
Once drafting is completed, the draft measure will require notification at EU level under the Tobacco Products Directive (Directive 2014/40/EU) as it entails the banning of a product.
