Dublin, Jan. 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "South Africa: E-Cigarette Regulation" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Vapour products with and without nicotine are not regulated under any product-specific laws. Nicotine is a scheduled drug under the Medicines and Related Substances Act and as such can only be sold by pharmacists and purchased with a doctor's prescription.
The Tobacco Products and Electronic Delivery Systems Control Bill was introduced in Parliament in December 2022. If adopted, it would regulate both nicotine-free and nicotine-containing e-cigarettes, and their components (such as cartridge, mouthpiece, etc).
The bill is currently being publicly discussed in different provinces around the country. The public hearings are expected to continue in 2024.
