"Government's Decision to Allow E-Cigarettes in Rwanda and Proposed Taxation Reforms"Rewritten passage: The government's plan to introduce changes to the taxation system has drawn attention to the potential approval of e-cigarettes in Rwanda. The newly proposed bill, currently under scrutiny in the lower Chamber of Parliament, suggests that e-cigarettes may be subject to new excise duties. This development comes after a prolonged debate and internal conflicts within the Ministry of Health, which resulted in the dismissal of some officials in 2019 and early 2020. The fact that the topic of taxing e-cigarettes is being discussed in Parliament indicates a significant shift in policy, suggesting that the government has either approved or is considering approving the importation and manufacturing of e-cigarettes. This decision raises concerns, especially considering the challenges faced in curbing cigarette consumption in the country thus far#RwOT #Rwanda
