Vaping will be banned in Australia as part of a major health crackdown.
The sale of vapes will be restricted to pharmacies and will be on prescription only, after the country's Health Minister said e-cigarettes have created a "new generation of nicotine addicts".
Under new rules, they'll only be sold in pharmacies to help smokers quit, and there'll be restrictions on packaging.
The Government there also wants to limit nicotine levels and ban all disposable vapes.
Meanwhile, here in Ireland, legislation to ban the sale of vapes to under 18s is expected to be passed in mid-July.
Children who vape are five times more likely to smoke cigarettes in later life, according to the Health Research Board.
Consultant physician Dr. Luke Clancy says vaping at any age ultimately leads to addiction..
He says, in his view, "the changes will not solve the problem of nicotine addiction."
