VAPING NEWS: NEW ZEALAND [Flavour Ban]

“The Vaping Trade Association of New Zealand (VTANZ) has lamented that the government appears to be “digging in” on its vaping bill that “only helps smoking”. The organisation’s disappointment has been shared by Aotearoa Vapers Community Advocacy (AVCA), which says the government has missed a “huge opportunity to achieve Smokefree 2025”. AVCA and VTANZ pressed upon legislators that fruit, dessert, and sweet flavour variations are the most popular for adults and key to smokers switching, but the Health Select Committee has stuck by the Government’s proposal to limit vape flavours to just three – menthol, mint and tobacco for all general retailers.”
