E-cigarettes to be banned at HSE facilities

The use of e-cigarettes is to be banned in all health facilities from the start of next month.

The HSE made the decision following a detailed review of the safety of e-cigarettes and their impact on the organisation’s smoke-free campus policy.

It follows the decision of a number of semi-state bodies in banning their use, including Iarnród Éireann, Dublin Bus, and Bus Éireann.
