FDA often plays an big part in the vaping industry as it always impose some measures to regulate the vaping world. I think that FDA must put forward these measures before the e-cigs are not proved whether it poses a threat to humans or not.
“To give ourselves time to implement this framework, including through notice and comment rulemaking, I’m directing CTP to reconsider the various compliance policies associated with the deeming regulation. This includes the policies relating to the compliance periods for premarket submissions for products on the market at the time the deeming rule took effect and for FDA’s review of those submissions. Specifically, CTP will consider the language in the preamble that set forth timelines for submissions and raised concerns about [vaping] products coming off the market before FDA had reached a decision. Reconsideration of these policies is within FDA’s discretion, and we are exercising that discretion in a targeted way in order to lay the groundwork for a more strategic long-term approach to regulating tobacco products.”
