When you look at the rules about promoting and advertising certain products, you need to know about a special exemption. This exemption is part of the Smokefree Environments and Regulated Products Act 1990. The exemption was only temporary and it stopped being valid 12 months after a specific part of the law, called section 23A, started being enforced, but it was repealed on 11 November 2020 by section 27 of the Smokefree Environments and Regulated Products (Vaping) Amendment Act 2020.
