Mr. Declan Connolly:

Again, this is anecdotal. Bear in mind, however, that we have had many different customers over the years so anecdotes can tell a lot. Many people will reduce their nicotine levels down to almost zero. We are talking 0.1% or 0.05%. However, the habit is still there. They still vape. Nicotine is obviously an addictive substance. None of us will deny that but it is more than just nicotine that keeps people going to their vape. Thankfully, non-smokers are not really interested in vaping products. The longer it can stay like that, the better. That is why we, as an association, and going back to what Deputy Hourigan said, would like to work with legislators to see better and possibly more stringent guidelines and regulation on the labelling and packaging of some of these products so they are not deemed to be attractive to youth.
