THOSE WHO IGNORE 'NO-SMOKING' SIGNS, ADVISORIES FACE PROSECUTION
Smokers who ignore "no smoking" signs and advisories in areas
such as hospitals, restaurants and public buildings may be
prosecuted once the Tobacco Order comes into effect by the first
quarter or middle of this year, the Minister of Health said
yesterday.
Responding to a query regarding the enforcement of non-smoking
regulations in prohibited areas, Pehin Orang Kaya Indera
Pahlawan Dato Seri Setia Haji Awang Suyoi bin Haji Osman in a
committee session of the State Legislative Council said that the
Tobacco Order had already been drafted and most regulations under
it had been prepared.
These include the Tobacco Licensing of Importers, Wholesalers
and Retailers and Tobacco Prohibition in certain places, among
others.
