Episode description
Vaping has rapidly grown to become a part of modern life, with shops selling vapes popping up almost on every street corner. But what is actually being sold, and who are the companies behind the massive industry? The Journal Investigates team — Maria Delaney, Patricia Devlin, and Conor O'Carroll — went undercover to expose the sale of illicit vapes in Ireland, and found numerous retailers are flouting the few rules that exist. Separately, their reporting also examined the links between traditional Big Tobacco brands and these new 'smokeless' products, and the lobbying which takes place behind the scenes.
