Where does it say they want to ban vaping outside schools & hospitals? This is specifically about smoking.
This may sound reasonable, but surely the issue of e.g. a child vaping outside of a school is covered by the fact they shouldn't be vaping as a child anywhere, and thus would either have the vape confiscated by parents taking them home or school staff?
This is where I am worried the government is overstepping.
