A new survey by Action on Smoking and Health Wales (Ash) found more than half of secondary school pupils who vaped were likely to be using illegal products, which bypass UK regulations and can contain significantly higher levels of nicotine.The Welsh government said it was “very concerned about the worrying rise in vaping among children” and was working with the UK government to tackle the problem.

“Now there are vapes ripping off the Prime drinks brand - if that’s not targeting kids then what is,” said Swansea Trading Standards officer Rhys Harries.“When we send kids in to [vaping stores] they come out with the illegal vapes, that’s what’s being pushed towards them.”Among hundreds of exhibits in Swansea’s evidence room is one shelf filled with counterfeit children’s toys.

Buried among them are cola and lime vapes with a big sticker declaring that the products are nicotine free.A product like this can, in theory, legally be “sold to anyone” explains Mr Harries.

But when he removes the outer packaging, inside is a regular disposable vape containing 2% nicotine.

Mr Harries said in Swansea about two-thirds of the calls Trading Standards get from the public are now about vapes being sold to children, or illegal vapes.The body which runs Nigeria's university-entrance exams has admitted to a "technical glitch" which compromised some results of this year's tests, after nearly 80% of students got low grades.
