The UK Parliament has passed the Tobacco and Vapes Bill, which permanently bans the sale of cigarettes and vape products to anyone born on or after January 1, 2009.This landmark public health legislation aims to create a smoke-free generation and reduce the financial burden on the National Health Service by raising the legal purchase age annually.The law also introduces strict new regulations on vape packaging and limits vaping in public spaces such as playgrounds and near schools or hospitals.
