The Ministry of Education and the Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Wellbeing respond to signals in "ANTIVEIP".
The Ministry of Education of the Nizhny Novgorod Region and the regional Office of Rospotrebnadzor are promptly considering appeals received in the "ANTIVEYP" chatbot in the national messenger MAX. This was reported by Deputy Governor of the Nizhny Novgorod Region Andrey Checherin, summarizing the interim results of the feedback service. The chatbot was launched more than a month ago. During this time, dozens of messages have been received from residents, mainly regarding facts of illegal sales of vapes. According to Federal Law No. 15 "On the Protection of Citizens' Health from Exposure to Environmental Tobacco Smoke, the Consequences of Tobacco Use, or the Use of Nicotine-Containing Products," the sale of such products is prohibited near educational organizations. Minister of Education of the Nizhny Novgorod Region Mikhail Puchkov noted that retail outlets located less than 100 meters from kindergartens, schools, and other educational institutions should be closed first. Chairperson of the Legislative Assembly Committee on Social Issues, member of the "United Russia" party faction Natalia Smotrakova emphasized that residents' appeals allow for the coordination of actions by controlling services. On May 20, field inspections were conducted with the participation of employees of the Office of Rospotrebnadzor for the Nizhny Novgorod Region in response to signals from parents. Specialists checked two addresses in the Kanavinsky district of Nizhny Novgorod, where facts of illegal sales of vapes near children's institutions were confirmed. According to the regional Ministry of Education, one retail outlet is located less than 100 meters from kindergarten No. 23 "Ryabinka," and the second is near the Nizhny Novgorod Regional Special (Correctional) Boarding School for Blind and Visually Impaired Children. Based on the results of a test purchase, acts have been drawn up, protocols on administrative offenses will be issued, and orders to eliminate violations will be given. Earlier, Governor Gleb Nikitin proposed limiting the sale of vapes and appealed to President Vladimir Putin. The head of state supported the proposal. In March, the State Commission for Counteracting the Illegal Circulation of Industrial Products also supported the initiative to ban vapes in Russia. The issue is being worked on by federal authorities. Prevention of tobacco and nicotine-containing product use and the formation of a culture of a healthy lifestyle are being implemented as part of the national project "Long and Active Life."
