Anti youth vaping groups call on Government to do more to reduce vaping

From Morning Report, 7:27 am on 21 March 2024

An anti youth vaping group is urging the Government to do more to reduce vaping.

The Government announced on Wednesday that disposable vapes will be banned outright as a part of a crackdown on youth vaping.

It also promised tougher restrictions and enforcement on retailers, with bigger fines for those who sell vapes to children.

But Marnie Wilton of Vape-Free Kids NZ says wider action is needed.

Wilton spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
