<p>The use of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) in public places is not subject
to regulation or control. E-cigarettes are not caught by smoke-free places legislation
under the Health Act 2006. There are no current plans in England to restrict the use
of e-cigarettes in public places. Some employers, owners, or managers of establishments
and venues have chosen to prohibit the use of e-cigarettes on their premises.</p><p>
</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The Department does not currently collect data on the number
of e-cigarettes sold in the United Kingdom. From May 2016, the revised Tobacco Products
Directive will require manufacturers and importers of e-cigarettes and refill containers
to notify the Government prior to placing products on the market.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>
