According to reported on November 8, the Irish government plans to legislate from selling electronic cigarettes to minors under 18. The legislation is about to be placed before Christmas.

He also plans to propose a second legislation to comprehensively ban disposable electronic cigarettes in all ages.

“We’re putting a second piece of legislation in place while we’re doing this one well looking at things like advertising, where people are buying them or point of sale, at colours, at flavourings, at single use disposable vapes – which I think we need to ban outright.”

What;s more, he emphasizes that this is an important public health measure, hoping to prohibit these electronic cigarettes from being sold to children as soon as possible.

In recent years, more and more young people starts to use electronic cigarettes, although they have never use cigarettes before.
