My Department is preparing proposals for consideration by Government in relation to a number of matters affecting public health including:

The regulation of sunbeds;

Provision of health advice on labels of alcohol containers and promotional materials;

Graphic warnings on tobacco products;

Minor amendments to the Public Health (Tobacco) Acts.

Pending consideration by Government, I am not in a position to say when these provisions might be introduced.
