The Irish Heart Foundation (IHF) has called on the Government to urgently establish a national anti-smoking taskforce. The IHF has compared the number of people in Ireland dying from smoking-related illnesses every year to the equivalent of two 9/11s.
It has accused the Government of failing to follow up on the smoking ban by properly funding cessation policies and imposing increased tobacco taxes.
