Trading Standards officials issue fines and warn retailers against stocking illegal e-cigarette products. Over 3,000 products seized in past year.

The Highland Council has issued a warning to retailers to be mindful of stockpiling illegal electronic cigarette products when cracking down on this practice. Over the past 12 months, they have seized "significantly more than" 3,000 products from stores in the area.

Officials from Trading Standards have issued several fixed penalty notices of £200 each. Three of these notices specifically prohibit retailers from stocking electronic cigarettes.


Their investigation found that various "non-compliant" electronic cigarettes in China pose serious health risks to some potential users.
