Vaping: Single-use vape ban pushed back by two months

“The environmental damage created by the rise in the littering and incorrect disposal of used vapes, as well as their poor recyclability, is a key concern for me,” he said.

“Single use vape waste can have a devastating impact on our environment and biodiversity and I welcome this ban which will have better benefits for our environment and consequently for our general health and well-being.”

Businesses have will be able to prepare for the change by selling any existing stock of single-use vapes.

During this period, the Department for Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs (Daera) will work with retail organisations to ensure those affected understand the ban and their new responsibilities.

UK-wide guidance for businesses is being prepared and is due to be published on Daera’s website, external later in December.
