In this article, we aim to examine key developments in e-cigarette policy that may have contributed to high uptake among young people in New Zealand between 2015 and 2024. By identifying key policy-relevant documents by government agencies and interactions with the industry, we aim to offer insights for jurisdictions looking to implement or strengthen e-cigarette policies.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We searched publicly available New Zealand government websites to identify documents related to e-cigarette policy between 2015 and 2024 (Ministry of Health, New Zealand Parliament, Beehive, Courts of New Zealand and New Zealand Customs).

Few studies have qualitatively investigated parents' perceptions of the factors that contribute to the normalisation of vaping for children and young people.

Data were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Parents were clear that vaping was becoming increasingly normalised for young people. They attributed this to four key factors: (1) Peer influences (particularly through school settings); (2) The increased accessibility and availability of vapes in community settings; (3) The role of marketing and novel product design; and (4) The perception that vapes were a healthier alternative to cigarettes or were not harmful.</p><p><strong>Discussion and conclusion: </strong>Understanding parents' views is an important part of developing public health responses to harmful products.
