There's some confusion as to whether he paid personally for the clean-up or if the cost came from public funds.

This poor guy probably did not have the information he needed to get off - ecigs are neither a 'tobacco product' not do they produce 'smoke'. That law only prohibits the use of tobacco products and the magistrate probably had never seen an ecig before or recognised the distinction.<br /><br />Even though this incident occured back in April, we have just learned of this injustice. I'm a member of Australia's vaping forum (aussievapers.com) and obviously we are all annoyed that this has occured as it sets a precidence for future similar cases. <br /><br />We are in the process of forming an Australian Vapers Association to help deal with such incidents and future issues we vapers will face when it comes to legislation and regulation.Haninoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-52563101907009482022013-11-04T01:41:01.198+00:002013-11-04T01:41:01.198+00:00The Aussies are just starting to get organized and...The Aussies are just starting to get organized and get things rolling down there.
