There is a great deal of concern about the use of e-cigarettes. The public health (retail licensing of tobacco products) Bill is to introduce a licensing system and other measures in respect of the sale of tobacco products and medicinal nicotine delivery systems, including e-cigarettes. People are not sure about e-cigarettes. When can we expect the publication of the Bill?

The Bill is not due until next year. Perhaps with the Ceann Comhairle's indulgence, if the Deputy submits a Topical Issue matter in respect of the health aspects of e-cigarettes, the Ceann Comhairle, in his graciousness, might allow Deputy Fitzpatrick to deal with that matter.
