The International Labour Organisation\u2019s Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 (MLC), which the UK ratified in 2013, provides a global framework for decent living and working conditions for seafarers. The MLC has been amended three times since then to provide measures<\/p>
<\/p>
For financial support for seafarers abandoned by shipowners;<\/p><\/li>
To protect seafarers against bullying and harassment; and<\/p><\/li>
To ensure that employment protection remains in place throughout the period of captivity for seafarers held captive in cases of piracy or armed robbery.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>
<\/p>
The UK continues to take an active role in the international Committee which keeps the MLC under review and will support practical measures to improve the wellbeing of seafarers.<\/p>
<\/strong><\/p> The Maritime and Coastguard Agency is expecting to publish new guidance for shipowners and for seafarers on wellbeing issues later this year.<\/p>"}

It has been transposed into United Kingdom law by the UK Tobacco and Related Products Regulations 2016. The legislation introduced measures to regulate e-cigarettes to reduce the risk of harm to children through rules on product safety, labelling and restrictions on advertising for electronic cigarettes.<\/p> <\/p> Furthermore, the Nicotine Inhaling Products (Age of Sale and Proxy Purchasing) Regulations 2015 makes it illegal to sell an electronic cigarette to any one aged under 18 years. Local trading standards have enforcement powers to take action on breaches of both sets of regulations.<\/p> <\/p> We continue to monitor the evidence and data on youth vaping. Public Health England\u2019s latest e-cigarette evidence review published in February 2019 indicates regular youth use of electronic cigarettes remains low. The Government has also made a commitment to review the Tobacco and Related Products Regulations 2016 by May 2021, and the Nicotine Inhaling Products (Age of Sale and Proxy Purchasing) Regulations 2015 by May 2020.<\/p> <\/p> <\/p> <\/strong><\/p> <\/strong><\/p>"}
