#2 BAT's Asli Ertonguc: Vaping industry needs more regulation


Listen Later

If you want to sell vapes you should be forced to have a licence - that's according to Asli Ertonguc - the UK and Ireland Managing Director of British American Tobacco, or B.A.T as it's called.

They're one of the world's largest tobacco manufacturers and sell the likes of Lucky Strike cigarettes, or Dunhill, and Rothmans.

Asli says this approach will have a far bigger impact on reducing smoking than the Tobacco and Vaping Bill which is currently weaving its way through parliament.

The Bill aims to make it so that anyone born after 2009 cannot legally buy cigarettes.
