A LOCAL Limerick TD welcomed the continued roll-out of legislation targeting nicotine inhaling products (such as e-cigarettes or โ€˜vapesโ€™).

A ban on the sale of such products to minors was put down in December 2023.

This year will see more measures enacted to tackle vaping.

โ€œThe remaining measures in the act, such as around advertising, a licensing system, and vending machines, will commence and we will examine the results of our public consultation on the further regulation of e-cigarettes,โ€ local TD Willie Oโ€™Dea said.

Deputy Oโ€™Dea also welcomed what he called โ€œinnovative proposalsโ€ around tobacco control, โ€œparticularly around flavourings and packagingโ€
