UKVIA Writes to MPs

The UK Vaping Industry Association raised concerns to MPs about misinformation in the Tobacco and Vapes Bill Committee. The association highlighted biased evidence and the exclusion of vaping industry representatives from giving testimony. They emphasized the importance of accurate information for informed decision-making and the need to differentiate between legal and illegal aspects of the industry. The UKVIA emphasized a commitment to reducing smoking and youth vaping rates but criticized the one-sided presentation during the Committee stage. They also called for a fair balance between adult smokers' access to quit aids and protecting young people from age-restricted products.
