[peter12]

I havent seen anything on vaping though.

Although the bill has not been passed yet, I reckon you can hold your breath if you want

Current Status of the Bill

This Member's Bill was introduced by Jim Hume MSP on 15 December 2014.

The Stage 1 debate took place on 8 October 2015.

The quote was taken from the following "Policy Memorandum (261KB posted 16 December 2014) "

www.scottish.parliament.uk/S4_Bills/Smoking%20Prohibition%20Bill/b58s4-introd-pm.pdf

"18. E-cigarettes are not included in the ban as they are not lit by a flame and do not produce smoke and do not therefore fall within the definition of ―smoking‖ in the 2005 Act. While concerns are being expressed about the content of substances emitted from some e-cigarettes, a body of evidence does not yet exist to demonstrate whether or not they are harmful."
