Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
General Scheme of the Public Health (Tobacco and Nicotine Inhaling Products) Bill: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. John Dunne:
I would like to answer that. If one actually reads those studies, and read down to the final conclusions, the studies do not actually prove that electronic cigarettes cause those. The researchers say that they “may” or “could”. That is the terminology that we find in many headline-grabbing reports. They say that more research needs to be looked at in that sector.
