Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

I think they are more industry standards for hazardous liquids.. safe containers clear labeling that includes visual and tactile alerts.
The labeling should display the contents accurately and the source of the product.
I don't know of any irish vendor doing this, but i'm sure they are.
Edit: These rules are based around the needs of emergency response teams and the need to act quickly with as much information as possible in the event of an emergency.0 -

I posted this on ECF and it's worth repeating here for those who don't frequent Sissyland, good an all as it is.

OK lets get this straight, from 2016 only medicinal licensed ecigs will be allowed on the market. Seems fair at least it's a level playing field.
No wait, they stated that no current product meets the standard. So then all the ecigs we are now using will be removed 21 Jan 2016.
They could in the meantime apply for a license though and if they are sufficiently safe and efficacious, could gain a license.
Bearing in mind that this is a medicine license, what dose efficacious mean? Well they cite varying nicotine levels and variation between devices. Presumably then their version of efficacious means less varity in devices as consistency in delivery of nicotine dose is part of their standards."The products won’t be assessed for how effective they are in helping people quit," Mean said. So no testing for effectiveness as a quit aid
3 years time and the market will have grown enough for the few licensed products to clean up on their not inconsiderable investment. No wonder Nicolites, the only license applicant so far released this http://www.thedrum.com/news/2013/06/13/nicolites-welcomes-decision-classify-e-cigarettes-medicine-and-expects-no-change
Make no mistake this is a ban and a snatch and grab by big tobacco on the market as it now exists. End result single unit disposable ecigs in menthol and orignal flavors only. They will be matt white, blue or grey and come in a big box with a sheet of small print included, retailing at 15 to 20 pounds initially, dropping to 20 cigarettes equivalent pricing later after they have established their good intentions not to market to children and non smokers.
Oh and expect public use bans and sin taxes, remember that these are not encouraging you to quit as a good citizen should.
So fumming mad at both the incompetence and hypocrisy of the MHRA .
Remember that we usually take English law and put a green frock with shiny harp emblazoned buttons on it and call it Irish law.0 -

Pretty sure its a proposal, so not a done deal yet. All the same we should all be reacting to oppose it.0 -
