Australian Greens MP and health department spokesman Cate Faehrmann has proposed legalizing nicotine vaping for Australian adults. The proposal aims to reduce young people's access to e-cigarettes on the black market and regulate against harmful effects associated with vaping devices.

The proposal outlines strategies to reduce the negative impact of e-cigarette consumption effectively. The Greens' rules will include monitoring and reducing nicotine levels in e-cigarettes.


The Greens also require health warnings on all vaping products, similar to what currently exists on cigarettes, and create a take-back system to minimize waste pollution from illicit vaping.


The Greens will hold manufacturers accountable for the end-of-life of these products and require retailers to operate 'smoke waste' take-back systems.
