Release: Import ban on vaping delayed

Health Minister Greg Hunt today announced he is delaying the implementation of the nicotine import ban until 1 January 2021. Legalise Vaping Australia today raised a vape to all of the Australians who lifted their voices against this policy.

“This is a big win for vapers across Australia,” said Legalise Vaping Policy Director, Emilie Dye. “Thank you everyone who pitched in, sharing stories, signing petitions, and calling MPs.”

“Federal policymakers heard your voices causing the Health Minister to delay this deadly policy. We now have an opportunity to fight for the legalisation and regulation of nicotine vaping in Australia.”

“Thank you Greg Hunt for listening the people of Australia and delaying this import ban.”
