The meeting comes after Amazon and Ali Express pulled Irish sales of e-scooters which go above the legal limit of 20km an hour.
The Taoiseach, Tánaiste and Junior Transport Minister will meet the Garda Commissioner today to discuss whether an outright ban on e-scooters is needed.
The meeting comes after Amazon and Ali Express pulled Irish sales of e-scooters which go above the legal limit of 20km an hour.
Last week Taoiseach Micheál Martin said he was leaning towards a ban, while the Garda Commissioner voiced support for such a ban.
Retailers are being urged to stop marketing them towards children.
There's also concern about e-scooters being sold to children in toy shops, as one to two children presenting at hospital emergency departments every day this summer had e-scooter related injuries.
