Global Regulation
Azerbaijan plans to set fines and enforcement mechanisms for the use of electronic cigarettes through secondary legal acts following the adoption of a new law, MP Soltan Mammadov, a member of parliament’s Health Committee, said. Mammadov said the bill seeks to clearly classify traditional tobacco, heated tobacco products, and electronic cigarettes, and is informed by international regulatory practices. He cited World Health Organization data indicating that e-cigarette use is significantly higher among minors than adults.
The proposed legislation “aims to restrict tobacco and e-cigarette products containing harmful or carcinogenic substances and address the rising use of e-cigarettes among schoolchildren.” Details on penalties and enforcement measures will be defined after the law is enacted.The post Azerbaijan Sets New Vape Laws first appeared on Tobacco Reporter.
