Scottish Lutheran Committee Warns Ban on Disposable E-cigarettes
Scottish Luther Board warns that banning disposable e-cigarettes may not be enough to tackle rising youth e-cigarette use.

According to a report by the Press and Journal, the Church of Scotland has warned that banning disposable e-cigarettes may not be enough to address the rising numbers of e-cigarettes among teenagers.

 

The Health, Social Care, and Sports Committee has written a letter to the Minister of Public Health, Jenni Minto, expressing concerns about the supply and regulations of e-cigarettes.

 

Earlier, experts presented evidence suggesting that the number of young people using nicotine vapor products (NVP) has been "alarminglly increasing." Data estimates that by 2022, 10% of 13-year-old adolescents will be vaping, compared to just 1% in 2015.

U.S. ITC Reopens PAX Labs Case Against STIIIZY, ALD; Domestic Industry Status at Center of Dispute
The U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) has announced a partial review of a key ruling in PAX Labs' patent infringement case against STIIIZY and ALD, focusing on whether the economic prong of the "domestic industry" requirement was properly assessed. While the commission previously found some of PAX's patents valid and infringed, it ruled that PAX had not demonstrated sufficient U.S. economic investment to establish a domestic industry, and therefore did not find a violation.
