NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet admits to VAPING and reveals his favourite flavour
- Mr Perrottet said he has the ‘occasional vape’
- Premier said vapes moved him away from cigarettes
The Premier of New South Wales has admitted he enjoys an occasional vape.
Dominic Perrottet revealed he sometimes uses e-cigarettes while speaking with 2Day FM’s morning radio crew Hughesy, Ed & Erin on Friday.
Mr Perrottet said he has the ‘occasional vape’, with ‘mixed fruit’ being his preferred flavour.
Host Erin Molan said because the Premier was an adult he could make the decision to vape but said when it came to children vaping was a ‘big issue’.
Dave Hughes disagreed with his co-host, claiming vaping was an issue for every age group.

‘It’s a big issue for everyone. I got so hooked on it Premier. It is so hard to get off it, cause you just crave it all day.’
Mr Perrottet replied: ‘That’s why you’ve got to have a prescription’.
The Premier explained many people, himself included, used a vape as a way to stop smoking cigarettes.
‘I think for a lot of kids, that’s the challenge, we want to make sure that we’re not encouraging younger people to get into vaping or smoking,’ Mr Perrottet said.
‘It’s a balance and we’ve got to get it right.’
In NSW e-cigarettes that contain nicotine are available to purchase through prescriptions only, however vapes are regularly sold among the black market.
