Take action on nitrous oxide. Many users are young people and they put their own lives at risk when they abuse it. They can also endanger lives while driving under the influence of nitrous oxide.
The Government should:

- ban all sales to those under 25
- limit sales to licensed retailers
- limit purchases for people with a professional need
- fines retailers for not complying with these laws
