The General Scheme of the Public Health (Nicotine Inhaling Products) Bill was published in September 2024. It is anticipated that two bills will arise from this General Scheme. The first is the Public Health (Nicotine Inhaling Products) Bill to further regulate nicotine inhaling products, commonly known e-cigarettes or vapes in relation to packaging and appearance, signage, display and advertising. The second is the Public Health (Single Use Vapes) Bill which will seek to ban the sale of single-use or disposable vapes. These provisions are contained in Part 3 of the General Scheme. This Briefing Paper sets out the policy and legislative background to these Bills.
