Make vapes legit

Re: “Hazy vape law makes waves: Tide may turn if PPRP wins poll”, (BP, Feb 3).

Government should stop cowering under pressure from special interest groups and legalise vaping devices. Most developed countries see them as both a less harmful alternative to cigarettes and as an effective tool to help people stop smoking cigarettes altogether. It would not be difficult for the government to look at how other countries regulate vaping devices and liquids and apply the same standards here.

If government really cared about people’s well-being, it’d see vapes as a useful public health tool and not something from which corrupt police officers, and others with vested interests, can make money. TARQUIN CHUFFLEBOTTOM
