The council also looks to change legislation with help from Stormont, Public Health and the PSNI
Belfast Council is to look at banning all under 18’s vaping at its sites and premises around the city.
The motion states: “Belfast faces a growing problem of vaping by children and young adults. These products are addictive, damaging to health and often contain illegal substances.“The legislation covering their sale is inadequate. While it is illegal to sell them to under 18’s, there is no registration of retailers, no restriction on the display of the products and no resources to identify illegal and harmful additives.
