Pennsylvania Attorney General Dave Sunday on Thursday provided an update on Act 57, a law passed last year that bans the sale<\/a> of electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) products in Pennsylvania unless they appear on the state’s approved product list.<\/p>\n Starting Monday, the attorney general’s office said it can begin enforcing the law.<\/p>\n Under Act 57, the attorney general’s office is responsible for building and publishing a list of approved vaping products. The current list, along with other forms, information and frequently asked questions about the law, is available online.<\/p>\n “This law is about keeping harmful products out of the hands of both children and adults who may not realize what they are consuming,” Sunday said. “Since Act 57 was signed into law, my office has been working diligently to build resources for companies and consumers so they can be in compliance when the enforcement date arrives. I applaud the legislature for their bipartisan support of Act 57 to provide this important public health safety measure to the Commonwealth.”<\/p>\n To get a product approved, companies must provide information showing it complies with Act 57 and state law.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cApproval may only be given for products FDA has approved to be sold or which are the subject of timely filed applications with FDA that have been accepted for filing by FDA and are still under review by FDA or subject to a denial order which has been stayed by FDA or court order,\u201d according to a news release from the attorney general\u2019s office.<\/p>\n Per the law, the office of attorney general said it will maintain and make publicly available a directory<\/a> that lists all manufacturers of electronic cigarettes that contain nicotine, brand names, categories (such as e-liquid, e-liquid cartridge, e-liquid pod, or disposable), product names and flavors for which certification forms have been submitted and approved by the attorney general.<\/p>\n
