New Hampshire HB1315 amends tobacco sales laws to exclude minors from delinquency status for violations.

New Hampshire HB1315 modifies the state's tobacco sales regulations by adding new provisions to RSA 126-K:6. Specifically, it introduces two new paragraphs: IV exempts minors aged 12 and older from being considered delinquent or a child in need of services for tobacco violations, and V mandates that individuals under 21 years old who violate these regulations face fines up to $100 per offense. This act is set to take effect on January 1, 2027.
