To ask the Scottish Government what its position is on the use of nicotine vaping products as a tool for adult smokers seeking to quit.
The Scottish Government’s position is that vapes and other nicotine products are part of a range of possible cessation tools available to existing smokers to help stop tobacco use. They are not without risk and should never be used by children or adult non-smokers.
