DISPOSABLE vapes are set to be banned as part of plans to tackle the rising number of young people taking up vaping, the government says reports the BBC.

Measures will also be introduced to prevent vapes being marketed at children and to target underage sales. 

Figures from the Action on Smoking and Health (Ash) charity suggest 7.6% of 11 to 17-year-olds now vape regularly or occasionally, up from 4.1% in 2020.
