Vaping could be banned in all pubs across England under new law

Bad news come to those who vape

A ban on the selling of single-use vapes came into effect last summer, a move that was seen as a first step in an overall government ambition to tackle the alarming rise in youth vaping.

On the other hand, the Tobacco and Vapes Bill that was submitted for parliamentary approval last year aims to create a "smokefree generation" by preventing future sales of tobacco to those born after Jan 1, 2009.

The bill passed through the House of Lords committee stage last November, while it is currently in a report stage before it is carried through for a third and final reading in the Lords.

It will progress to the final two stages after that, and they include a consideration of amendments and a royal assent.

The bill would empower the government to extend smoke-free rules to include vaping in enclosed public places, if passed.

“The Tobacco and Vapes Bill gives the Government powers to make most public places and workplaces that are smoke-free also vape-free”, according to Health minister Ashley Dalton.

“We plan to consult on making most indoor settings, that are subject to existing smoke-free legislation, vape-free. This would include inside pubs and other hospitality venues”, Dalton added.

With the new law, it is aimed to turn the restrictions into a nationwide legal requirement, as many pubs already prohibit indoor vaping as a matter of policy.

Researchers say that the imminent disposable vapes ban may have a “limited impact” on the number of people using e-cigarettes, however.

Doctors have raised alarm over high levels of vaping among children worldwide, as it is said to raise the risk of a stroke by a third.

While according to new study, vaping is worse than smoking cigarettes.
