“A year ago, the State Duma adopted a law banning the sale of vapes to minors, as well as advertising... Not all sellers comply with these standards... It would be right to introduce more effective punishment for irresponsible entrepreneurs,” he said.
Volodin proposed increasing the amount of fines to levels that would encourage people not to sell vapes to children, or to suspend the operation of the outlet.
Earlier, the LDPR came up with an initiative to completely ban the sale of vapes in Russia.
Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Labor, Social Policy and Veterans Affairs Yaroslav Nilov said that the government provided feedback on the LDPR bill on a complete ban on vaping in Russia.
