Report: Are you in favour of a Latte Levy ?

As part of the Newstalk Amárach Poll, we wanted to find out people's opinions on the proposed introduction of a 'Latte Levy'. And a national ban on single use cups.     51% said they were in favour of a 'Latte Levy', which would add a 20 cent charge on paper take away coffee cups.  While 49% are in favour of a ban on single use coffee cups.  Henry McKean met coffee industry leaders, who say 300 coffee shops have closed in the last few months and don't need any more pressure.
