WHILE the pro- and anti-tobacco movements are arguing over whether or not to reintroduce packs of 10 cigarettes, could we perhaps ask what the government is doing with regard to regulations for e-cigarettes?

It has been a year since the matter was raised and there has been no update thus far. Perhaps, it is time to revisit the topic of harm reduction when it comes to nicotine consumption.
