Comes into effect on 19 October
Businesses are being reminded by the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture about the forthcoming ban of single-use plastics.

From that date it will be illegal to sell or distribute items such as straws, carrier bags or any other similar product that can't be re-used.
However, DEFA member Michelle Haywood says there will be exemptions including plastic pint pots used to hold drinks such as beer:
