Your Invitation: Cross Party Group on Independent convenience stores - UK Vaping Regulation: Compliance & Illicit Trade. 6pm, 12th Nov

The next meeting of SGF's Cross Party Group on Independent Convenience Stores will take place on 12th November at 6pm, in Committee Room 3 at the Scottish Parliament.

The meeting will focus on UK Vaping Regulation: Compliance & Illicit Trade. With Scotland set to ban disposable vapes from April 2025, and additional measures expected in the forthcoming UK-wide Tobacco and Vapes Bill, this is a critical and timely topic for our members.

We hope to have an expert panel of speakers to address key issues, including Vape regulations, compliance, the illicit trade of vapes and a retailer's overall perspective.

Following the presentations, there will be an opportunity for a Q&A session with our speakers and MSPs present.

We would greatly value your participation in what promises to be a thought-provoking discussion. We will gather in the Parliament visitor reception before proceeding to the event room.

Please confirm your attendance, or that of a colleague, by emailing aidans@sgfscot.co.uk.
