Jan O'Sullivan (Limerick East, Labour)

This is a loophole and I want more information on it. How hard will it be to get the exemption and what kind of standards would apply? I understand the attempt to protect specialist shops but if this allows many other shops to become specialist shops by virtue of the fact that they do not sell cigarettes but sell other tobacco products and items, there could be a proliferation of specialist shops. This would need to be controlled tightly.
