Dáil Hears Single-Use Vapes Heavily Contributing To Litter In Clare
Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description
The Dáil has heard that vapes are contributing heavily to littering and pollution in Clare. TDs have debated a bill which is seeking to ban single-use vapes and only allow vendors to sell devices intended to be re-used. The legislation has been challenged by Sinn Féin, with Shannon Deputy Donna McGettigan describing it as a "piecemeal approach" and claiming it only targets products already being phased out. She says many in this county are complaining about the incorrect way in which single-use vapes are being disposed of.
