The Australian government is intensifying efforts to combat the rising issues of vaping and the black market for tobacco, as highlighted in a recent parliamentary session. Health Minister Mark Butler has announced plans to introduce new legislation aimed at curbing these activities, emphasizing the health risks associated with vaping, particularly among young people. This legislative push comes in response to a significant increase in vaping, with a reported 14.5% of Australians aged 18-24 having vaped in the past year. Concurrently, the opposition, led by Peter Dutton, has criticized the government's handling of the budget, urging the release of an updated budget statement to address economic pressures like inflation and cost of living. This call for transparency is part of a broader political debate on economic management and public health policy.
