The Albanese government has announced sweeping new changes to Australia’s vaping laws, which will see the products continue to be sold – but only in pharmacies.

To secure the support of the Greens in the Senate, Labor has agreed to backtrack on its prescription-only model.

It means vapes will be made available at pharmacies across the country – but they will be regulated and subject to plain packaging requirements, with flavours limited to mint, menthol or tobacco.

In this episode of The Briefing, we’re joined by Greens leader Adam Bandt to find out why the Greens negotiated the new laws and what the new regulations mean for vapers and smokers wanting to quit cigarettes.

Headlines:

Julian Assange will face court at 9am today on a US island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean

Senator Fatima Payman crosses the floor

Jarryd Hayne won’t face a fourth trial
