A ban on the sale of vapor cigarettes to young people.

Cosc le cur ar ghaltoitíní a dhíol le daoine óga.

Health Minister Stephen Donnelly's proposal to ban the sale of vaping to people under the age of eighteen is to be discussed at a Government meeting today.

Tá moladh an Aire Sláinte Stephen Donnelly cosc a chur ar ghaltoitíní a dhíol le daoine faoi ocht mbliana déag le plé i gcruinniú Rialtais inniu.

The Minister also intends to place restrictions on the advertising of vapor cigarettes.

Tá sé i gceist ag an Aire freisin srianta a chur ar fhógraíocht galtoitíní.

Under his proposal, advertising will be banned near schools, on public transport services and in cinemas.

Faoina bhfuil beartaithe aige, coiscfear fógraíocht in aice le scoileanna, ar sheirbhísí iompair phoiblí agus i bpictiúrlanna.

It was promised in the Government Program that such restrictions would be introduced.

Gealladh i gClár an Rialtais go dtabharfaí isteacht srianta mar iad.

There are many flavors of vapes - including those aimed at young people.

Tá iliomad blasanna galtoitíní ann - blasanna neamúla atá dírithe ar dhaoine óga ina measc.

According to the Health Research Board, people who smoke vapes are five times more likely than other people to start smoking.

De réir an Bhoird Taighde Sláinte, is dóichí faoi chúig go dtosóidh daoine a chaitheann galtoitíní, go dtosóidh siadsan thar dhaoine eile ag caitheamh tobac.

If Minister Donnelly's recommendations are accepted in the Government meeting today, it is expected that the appropriate legislation will be submitted to the Oireachtas in the new year.

Má glactar le moltaí an Aire Donnelly sa chruinniú Rialtais inniu, meastar go gcuirfear an reachtaíocht chuí faoi bhráid an Oireachtais sa bhliain nua.

Amendments to policing in the State are also to be discussed in the meeting.

Tá leasuithe ar chúrsaí póilíneachta sa Stát le criathrú sa chruinniú chomh maith.

Comprehensive proposals from Justice Minister Helen McEntee regarding closer public oversight of the Garda Síochána will be discussed.

Pléifear moltaí cuimsitheacha ón Aire Dlí agus Cirt Helen McEntee maidir le maoirseacht phoiblí níos géire a dhéanamh ar an nGarda Síochána.

In that section, a proposal to limit the income of electricity generation companies and to put any money they earn above that into the Exchequer will be discussed.

Ina cheann sin, pléifear moladh teorainn a chur le hioncam comhlachtaí ginte leictreachais agus aon airgead a thuilleann siad os a chionn sin a chur sa Státchiste.

The companies that do not benefit from gas are the ones in question, according to what is planned.

Is iad na comhlachtaí nach mbaineann leas as gás atá i gceist, de réir a bhfuil beartaithe.
