Norwegian Health Ministry Proposes E-Cigarette Regulations to Combat Youth Usage
According to Norwegian media Moja Norwegia on July 2, the Norwegian Ministry of Health has proposed a regulation bill for e-cigarettes due to the increasing number of young people in the European Union using them.
The bill includes:
- Banning the addition of flavors other than tobacco flavors to e-cigarette vapor. The proposal is based on similar principles that have been implemented in countries such as Finland and Denmark.
- Require the use of standard packaging for e-cigarettes and similar products. The proposal is based on similar provisions already in place in countries such as Denmark and the Netherlands.
The government submitted the bill on June 9. It will be reviewed by the congressional health committee, and the revised regulations will take effect after being passed by the parliament.
