The law, which transfers the regulation of vapes and other heated tobacco products to the Trade department from the Food and Drug Administration , lapsed into law on July 25, according to a copy of letter to Congress signed by Executive Secretary Victor D. Rodriguez.
The law lowers the minimum age for people who can use vapes to 18 from 21 years. It also allows the products to be sold online. Allowing the bill to lapse into law is a “betrayal of public health” and a “regrettable development in the face of President Marcos’ commitment to build back better,” ImagineLaw said in a statement.
