The Tobacco and Vapes Bill aims to create the first smoke-free generation, prohibiting tobacco sales to anyone born after January 1, 2009, protecting future health.
Health Secretary Wes Streeting stated that the proposed legislation is critical to saving lives and preventing tobacco addiction among youth, emphasizing the need for timely action.
The bill will restrict vape advertising and flavors, seeking to minimize children's exposure to alluring tobacco products and fostering a healthier environment.
In addition to tobacco sales restrictions, the legislation may also extend indoor smoking bans to outdoor areas like playgrounds and school zones for children's protection.
