MINOR

This bill was updated from a House version to a Senate version, changing the bill number and metadata while keeping the core policy intact. The most significant substantive change is the effective date, which was moved from July 1, 2026, to January 30, 2050, likely to allow for future legislative adjustments or a placeholder date. Minor technical edits were made to improve the consistency of legal definitions and formatting throughout the text.

Scope change

The bill's scope regarding electronic smoking device regulation remains unchanged; however, the timeline for enforcement has been drastically extended to 2050.

TIMELINE

The effective date of the law was changed from July 1, 2026, to January 30, 2050, delaying when the regulations begin to apply.

TECHNICAL

Several definitions in the bill were updated to consistently use the phrase 'has the same meaning as defined in section 245-1' instead of 'in section 245-1' for better legal precision.

Minor formatting and punctuation adjustments were made to the text, such as changing 'no less than' to 'not less than' in penalty clauses and standardizing hyphenation in product categories.
