Proposal to Ban Street Vendors Selling E-Cigarettes in UK
Buckinghamshire council proposes banning street vendors from selling e-cigarettes and other items in public areas without approval.

According to a report from BBC on April 10th, Buckinghamshire County Council has proposed new regulations that would ban street vendors from selling e-cigarettes. The draft proposal suggests that all street vendors in the county would need approval from the local government to operate in public spaces.

 

Other potentially banned items include disposable plastic products, sky lanterns, and items that are offensive or have sexual implications.

 

The council stated that citizens can submit their comments on the proposal before April 28th.
