The government is considering introducing a ticketing system for smoking in public places, in a move aimed at reducing court cases and standardizing enforcement of the law.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Director General for Communications Maurice Merchant said Cabinet is reviewing how the law is applied after concerns about inconsistent interpretation and enforcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe interpretation of the law on smoking in public places\u2026 there are varying interpretations,\u201d Merchant said, noting that the issue has led to confusion among both the public and law enforcement.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

He said one of the options under consideration is a fixed-penalty system similar to traffic violations.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOne of the ideas that is being looked at\u2026 is the ticketing system, similar to the traffic ticketing system for smoking in public places,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under such a system, individuals found violating the law would be issued a ticket and required to pay a fine, rather than being arrested and taken before the courts.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou ticket and you pay a fine\u2026 or it leads to some other forms of punishment,\u201d Merchant explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Officials say the change is being considered to prevent minor offences from burdening the judicial system.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf you go out in public and\u2026 want to smoke\u2026 then to be hauled before the courts\u2026 that\u2019s a bit much,\u201d Merchant said.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The review also comes amid concerns about how the law is being applied, with some members of the public believing it applies only to marijuana use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMany persons think that smoking in public places\u2026 applies only to weed smoking,\u201d Merchant said, adding that cigarette smoking has also been subject to enforcement action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The government is expected to return to Parliament to clarify the legislation and establish clearer guidelines for enforcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Officials say the proposed ticketing system would bring consistency, reduce unnecessary arrests and provide a more proportionate response to minor offences<\/p>\n
