Wild west no more: Vape products and ecigarettes will soon be put under new taxes and controls.

PETALING JAYA: Thorough regulation on all nicotine products will be introduced in a new Bill that is set to be tabled in Parliament next month, says Health Minister Dr Zaliha Mustafa amid continuous criticisms from health and consumer groups over the decision to remove them from the Poisons List.

Yesterday, one of them called for members of the Poisons Board to resign.
