We oppose this motion. Currently, importation of vaping solutions containing nicotine is illegal. There is one exception, allowing an individual to import three-months personal supply of e-cigarette liquid containing nicotine, provided they have obtained a prescription from their doctor. One Nation supports the sanctity of the doctor-patient relationship. If a doctor thinks vaping nicotine is likely to help their patient quit smoking, they should be allowed to be prescribed that. Every state and territory, except for Queensland, has enacted regulations to give effect to this principle. If these products are available on the wider market and if they are being used illegally, it is up to the states to police and enforce their existing laws.
