A NEW Government crackdown on vape marketing will prevent the "unacceptable" targeting of children and young people, Rishi Sunak has said
Crackdown on vape ads for children

Ministers have pledged to close a loophole allowing retailers to give free samples of vapes to children in England, amid concerns over the proportion of children trying e-cigarettes.

The move comes days after the Prime Minister used an appearance on ITV's Good Morning Britain to express concern about his own daughters potentially being targeted by vape marketing.

The Government said that there will also be a review into banning retailers selling "nicotine-free" vapes to under-18s.
