Schools Vaping Survey
The Cancer Society Auckland is concerned about children and young people taking up vaping and the negative impact this can have on their health and development.
While vaping can be a useful tool to help adults quit smoking, the Cancer Society wants to ensure our young people are adequately protected in new legislation and would appreciate if you could take a few minutes to complete this survey.
The findings may be used to raise awareness on the issue of youth vaping and inform submissions on proposed Ministry of Health amendments to the Smoke-free Environments act 1990 (SFEA) for the regulation of these products.
