DISCUSSION | Parliament seeks to regulate vaping and e-cigarettes

JOHANNESBURG - Parliament's Portfolio Committee on Health is continuing its hearings on the proposed Tobacco Products and Electronic Delivery Systems Control Bill.

READ: New smoking laws to affect vaping industry

The Bill aims to classify electronic nicotine delivery systems and electronic non-nicotine delivery systems in the same category as traditional tobacco products.

This means a restriction on the sale and use of both nicotine and non-nicotine-containing products, such as vapes, in public places, and people’s homes and cars.

We spoke to  Asanda Gcoyi, CEO of Vapour Products Association of South Africa.
