THE Parents Against Vape on Friday, August 2, 2024, reiterated its call for lawmakers to hand over the regulation of vape and electronic cigarette products to the Food and Drug Administration by amending Republic Act No. 11900 or the Vape Regulation Act. In a statement, PAV president Rebie Relator said it is imperative for lawmakers to amend the law, which provides the Department of Trade and Industry .

Under RA 11900, the DTI has the 'exclusive jurisdiction' over any and all issues related to vaporized nicotine and non-nicotine products, and their devices. Relator said their call is backed by the recent decision of the Supreme Court regarding the FDA having mandate over the health aspects of tobacco products, and not the Inter-Agency Committee on Tobacco.
