Ireland to crackdown on vapes as Stephen Donnelly calls for restrictions on design and flavours

Health Minister Stephen Donnelly has vowed to crack down on the design and flavour of vapes as he announced a ban on the sale of e-cigarettes for under-18s.

Cabinet approved a bill from the Minister that will prohibit the sale of nicotine-inhaling products to anyone under 18 years.
