The law associated with the acceptability of electronic cigarettes is far from clear, both from a legal viewpoint in terms of their use in a smokefree place, and in terms of the general safety of the products.
We are aware that investigation into the safety of their use is currently underway and results of sampling have not yet been released. It appears on the surface that the use of these cigarettes goes against the spirit of the law and it may be that it goes against the actual word of law.
We cannot provide a conclusive decision on their legal status at the current time. However, if it is decided that their use is illegal and you use one of the products, or allow the use of the products, in an enclosed public place, a workplace, or in a public or work vehicle, it would be at your own risk.
More information will be provided when we have received definitive guidance on this issue. This will then enable you to make a more informed decision on their use.
