Background: The Tobacco Products and Electronic Delivery Systems Control Bill 2022 is currently under review in South Africa. This proposed legislation seeks to impose heavy restrictions on vaping and other electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). If passed, it will have far-reaching consequences for vapers, smokers looking to quit, and public health in general.

Key Issues with the Bill:

  • Flavour Bans: The proposed bill includes a ban on all flavored vape products. Flavours are crucial for smokers transitioning to less harmful alternatives.
  • Advertising and Promotion: The bill proposes a complete ban on advertising and promoting vaping products, making it difficult for smokers to learn about safer alternatives.
  • Packaging Restrictions: Mandates plain packaging, which could mislead consumers into thinking that vaping products are as harmful as cigarettes.
  • Vaping in Public: Severe restrictions on where vaping is allowed, limiting personal freedom and making it harder for vapers to find suitable places to vape.

Let’s fight back together! Sign up here:

Why This Matters:

  • Harm Reduction: Vaping is proven to be significantly less harmful than smoking. Banning flavours and restricting access to vaping products could drive many back to smoking.
  • Consumer Choice: Adults should have the right to choose safer alternatives to smoking.
  • Public Health: The proposed bill could undermine public health efforts by discouraging smokers from switching to less harmful options.

Our Stand: The Vaping Saved My Life (VSML) & World Vapers’ Alliance (WVA) community strongly opposes the Tobacco Products and Electronic Delivery Systems Control Bill 2022. We advocate for regulations that are fair, evidence-based, and that support harm reduction.
