What steps is the Welsh Government taking to make e-cigarette and e-liquid vendors aware of new regulations under the provisions of the Tobacco Products Directive 2014/14/EU?
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Health, Well-being and Sport | Answered on 24/05/2017
The regulations in relation to e-cigarettes have come into force as a result of UK legislation. Information is available from the Medicine and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency.
At present there is no list of retailers of these products. The retail register to be introduced by the Public Health (Wales) Bill will provide such a list. This will make it possible to inform retailers of e-cigarettes and related products of any future changes to legislation which will affect them.
