41N  Simplified outline of this Chapter

      The importation into Australia of vaping goods, and the manufacture, supply or possession of vaping goods in Australia, is prohibited, subject to some exceptions. A person may commit an offence or be liable to a civil penalty for contravening the prohibitions (see Part 4A‑2).
      Definitions of vaping goods and related terms are set out in Division 2 of this Part. Vaping goods includes vaping substances, vaping accessories, vaping devices and goods determined by the Minister to be vaping goods.
      The Minister may, by legislative instrument, determine that specified vaping goods, or a specified class of vaping goods, may be supplied or possessed in Australia:
             (a) by a specified person, or a specified class of persons; and
             (b) in the circumstances (if any) specified in the determination; and
             (c) subject to the conditions (if any) specified in the determination (see Part 4A‑3).
      The Secretary may, on application by a person, give the person consent to manufacture, supply or possess vaping goods. The consent may be given unconditionally or subject to conditions, and in respect of particular vaping goods or classes of vaping goods. In deciding whether to give a consent, the Secretary must comply with the decision‑making principles (if any) determined by the Minister by legislative instrument. A person may commit an offence or be liable to a civil penalty if conditions of a consent are breached (see Part 4A‑3).
