Abstract

This edition of the Journal includes a commentary by Burrowes et al1 discussing the validity of the claim that e-cigarettes are 95% safer than smoking. The commentary is highly topical as legislation to introduce a regulatory framework for these and related products is (finally) before Parliament. It is thus timely to take stock and discuss outstanding issues, including next steps and priorities, both with the current Bill and the Smokefree Aotearoa 2025 goal of minimising use and availability of smoked tobacco products for all peoples.
