There was an artical on the main BBC news on Wed. saying that some firm had invented an electronic cigarette that gets around the smoking ban in public places, they say it is legal because the substance in them is not tobacco, I checked on this fact and it seems to be correct, it then occured to me that back in the late 70s. most major cigarette companies bought out fags made with a substance called NSM (new smoking material) it looked and tasted like tobacco but was totaly
man made, so would these be legal to use in public places if they re-introduced them ?? By the way I would point out that I am a non smoker myself, but I am curious about this law

No, the law applies to herbal cigarettes as well, and I'm not referring to Mary Jane.

The Health Act 2006 opens with a bang: Part 1, Smoking; Chapter 1, Smoke-free premises, places and vehicles. 'Smoking' refers to smoking tobacco or anything which contains tobacco, or smoking any other substance.

Thanx for your great answer, but if this is the case how is smoking an electronic cigarette getting around the ban as you are still smoking but just not tobacco, read this from our local paper, this pub is selling them for use in the bar !! http://www.huntspost.co.uk/content/hunts/news/ story.aspx?brand=HPTOnline&category=News&tBran d=HertsCambsOnline&tCategory=newslatestHPT&ite mid=WEED08%20Oct%202008%2015%3A16%3A52%3A280


These devices are not lit; they emit no smoke, just a vapour; nothing is burning.

The councils are considering court action to get a definitive answer.

not sure it will catch on personally,but looks like rex and nicole from BB are willing to embrace it, :-)
