Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

General Scheme of the Public Health (Tobacco and Nicotine Inhaling Products) Bill 2019: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Declan Connolly:

I wish to come in there. My business is primarily online. I still do not have a foolproof age verification system on the website. I put my hand up and accept that. There are other things you can do in the meantime to discourage youths from buying online. One of the first things we do is stamp each of the packages with the ezSmoke logo. This means that if a person who is under the age of 18 has ordered something online, it comes in through the letterbox and mam or dad will be there to see it and ask what was ordered from ezSmoke.
