Ban marketing vapes to children - senior Labour MP
Banning the marketing of vapes with brightly coloured packaging and branding would protect children from addiction, a senior Labour MP says. Helen Hayes, the shadow minister for children, has proposed a new law aimed at driving down the number of young people vaping. The legal age to purchase and use a vape, is 18 years old. The government is considering issuing fines to shops selling vapes to under 18s illegally.
