      @mihotep @FergusMason1 And no applications to list them have been made to the TGA because no one wants them as a theraputic good.

      @GidMK @mihotep @FergusMason1 They aren't a therapeutic good, they are a consumer product that is a safer alternative than smoking tobacco.

      @BigVapingNunga @mihotep @FergusMason1 An aid for smoking cessation here is by definition a theraputic good.

      @GidMK @mihotep @FergusMason1 That may be, but vapourisers are not an aid for smoking cessation, and NOT a therapeutic good.

      @BigVapingNunga @mihotep @FergusMason1 If they aren't a cessation aid then probably not allowed in aus because of nicotine harms.

      @GidMK @mihotep @FergusMason1 Nope, wrong again, nicotine liquids are illegal to sell, but vapers just buy over seas and import. Next ......

      @BigVapingNunga @mihotep @FergusMason1 You could be fined for importing nicotine containing products. Not quite legal, but complex laws.

          @BigVapingNunga @mihotep @FergusMason1 Well ALP is certainly campaigning for increased taxation on cigs which is proven effective.

          @BigVapingNunga @mihotep @FergusMason1 Taxation is extremely well-evidenced method for reducing smoking.
