Select Committee on Health
Public Health (Tobacco Products and Nicotine Inhaling Products) Bill 2023: Committee Stage
Stephen Donnelly (Wicklow, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source
What I am saying very clearly to colleagues is that were we to accept this amendment, we could not ban the selling of vapes to children for at least another six months. We would be back here with this Bill in eight months' time, having lost eight months of protecting children. I fully agree we are going to do it. Under no circumstances should we wait for eight months to protect children.
