(asked on 12th November 2018) - View Source
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether (a) nicotine shots and (b) shortfills are regulated under (i) UK and (ii) EU law.
This question was answered on 20th November 2018
Nicotine shots are regulated under the Tobacco and Related Products Regulation 2016 as they are a nicotine containing product. As shortfills do not contain nicotine when sold they are not regulated under the Tobacco and Related Products Regulations 2016 (TRPR), but are covered by General Product Safety Regulations.
The Government is committed to conduct a review of the TRPR at a later date.
