Tough new vape laws to be put in place tomorrow

From January 1, some of the world's toughest rules around vapes will become law in Australia. The importation of all disposable vapes containing nicotine will be officially banned. Doctors and nurses will still have the power to prescribe them as a method to help patients recover from addiction. Health Minister Mark Butler has warned that one in four Australians aged 18 to 24 were already addicted to vapes. One in seven 14 to 17-year-olds also use disposable vapes.
