A GISBORNE vape store is not waiting for official rules to label products with warning stickers. Millions of vaping products imported into New Zealand will be required to display warning labels in te reo Maori if new Government proposals are implemented, but imports at the Gisborne Shosha store already have them in English and te reo Maori. Under new proposals, e-cigarettes containing nicotine will be required to carry a warning label advising of the potential for addiction to the product in English and te reo Maori — similar to that found on cigarettes containing tobacco.
