The witnesses have spoken a lot about long-established tobacco companies presenting themselves as vape companies that allegedly want to get people to quit smoking and about their slight smoke and daggers approach. Can they outline the rules and regulations for lobbying by the tobacco industry in Ireland and internationally and how lobbying works here? I ask because it is important for the people listening in to understand the regulations here, particularly when we talk so much about tobacco companies presenting themselves as vape companies and other such things.
