Publicans in Kerry are pushing for a unified ban on vaping within their establishments, responding to increasing reports of excessive vape use. Currently, there are no regulations prohibiting vaping indoors unless individual proprietors choose to enforce a ban, with some Tralee publicans already implementing one since January 1st. Christy Walsh, Secretary of the Kerry branch of the Vintners' Federation of Ireland, is leading the effort. The publicans are also expressing frustration with the government, accusing them of inaction and describing their response as “twiddling thumbs”.
