Parliament Matters
Parliament matters because vaping policy is shaped by the people who decide what evidence is heard, which risks are prioritised and how adult smokers are represented. Poor legislation can make lower-risk products harder to access while cigarettes remain familiar and available. Stronger scrutiny should separate youth protection from adult harm reduction, and enforcement from overreach. The aim should be a legal framework that reduces smoking, supports switching and reflects the real differences between nicotine products.
11.80% of the adult population are current smokers. There are approximately 6.7 million current smokers in United Kingdom 13.60% of men are current smokers but only 10.10% of women.
