A 9News investigation reports that illicit tobacco and e-cigarettes can be bought easily in Perth. The three outlets summarised the same investigation, describing that purchases can be made through channels the investigation tested, highlighting how readily consumers may be able to obtain products that are not legally supplied. The reporting focuses on the ease of obtaining both illicit tobacco and e-cigarettes, rather than on specific retailers named in the excerpts provided. Across the coverage, the common theme is the accessibility of unregulated or illicit nicotine products, and the investigation is presented as evidence of a broader problem affecting the retail marketplace. The articles do not provide additional policy details or responses from authorities in the supplied text, but the investigation is positioned as a test demonstrating the practical barriers—if any—that prevent illicit sales. Overall, the coverage aligns on what the investigation aims to show: that illicit tobacco and e-cigarettes are obtainable in Perth, as found by the 9News inquiry.
