The sale of disposable vapes is set to be banned under proposals going to Cabinet.

The Minister for Health is expected to get Government approval to draft these laws which will ban the sale, manufacture or import of single-use or disposable vapes in Ireland.

Stephen Donnelly plans to introduce this ban on environmental and public health grounds.

    Agreed. I think a huge part of it is down to how many kids are vaping here too. Saw an interview with the Taoiseach (prime minister) and he said 13% of 12-17 year olds had vaped in the last 30 days. Pretty crazy number.

      Gov’ts in my area keep ranting about how many kids are vaping, forgetting that they set it up that way by banning RTAs/RDAs and only selling disposables.

      How dumb must you be to do that, and throw your hands in the air while yelling “We don’t understand why!”
