Die wetsontwerp op die beheer van tabakprodukte en elektroniese afleweringstelsels is voor die parlement ter tafel gel\u00ea, wat die proses begin om voorgestelde veranderings in die wetgewing vir rokers en die tabakbedryf te kry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die wetsontwerp sal nou deur die Nasionale Vergadering, die Nasionale Raad van Provinsies, voortgaan en uiteindelik aan die president gestuur word vir goedkeuring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In die geheel maak die wetsontwerp voorsiening vir die verbod op rook in openbare plekke en buite-areas soos deur die minister voorgeskryf, asook veranderinge aan die advertensies en verpakking van tabakprodukte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Een van die meer omstrede aspekte van die wetsontwerp, wat \u2019n terugslag is vir die ontluikende vape- of e-sigaretbedryf, is regulasies wat elektroniese nikotienafleweringstelsels en nie-nikotienafleweringstelsels beheer asook aangeleenthede wat met die sektor verband hou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die wette bemagtig die minister om \u2019n magdom regulasies te maak:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 die afstand waarbinne rook verbode is vanaf \u2019n oop venster of ventilasie-inlaat van of ingang en uitgang van \u2019n ingeslote openbare plek of werkplek;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 die verbod op rook in of by \u2019n buitelug openbare plek of werkplek, of sodanige gedeelte van \u2019n buitelug openbare plek of werkplek, waar rook \u2019n gesondheids-, brand- of ander -gevare kan inhou;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 die aksies wat deur die eienaar of persoon in beheer van openbare plekke geneem moet word om rook te voorkom;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 enige verkoopbeperkings of bykomende vereistes om toegang tot \u2019n relevante produk of \u2019n verwante produk deur kinders te voorkom;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 verskeie maatre\u00ebls om die verpakking en vertoon van tabakprodukte te reguleer en te beheer; en<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 hoe hierdie regulasies van toepassing is op elektroniese stelsels \u2013 vapes en e-sigarette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Afhangende van watter regulasie oortree word, kan diegene wat in stryd met die voorgestelde wette gevind word, \u2019n boete of tronkstraf of albei in die gesig staar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die tronkstraf wissel tussen drie maande vir rook waar jy nie mag nie \u2013 tot 20 jaar vir die verkoop van tabakprodukte aan kinders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hier is van die grootste veranderinge om te verwag: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Geen rook areas<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n Die wetsontwerp l\u00ea \u2019n lang lys van gebiede uiteen wat as rookverbodsones beskou sal word, met oortreders wat die risiko loop om boetes of tronkstraf op te doen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Eienaars, werkgewers en huishulpe<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Volgens die wetsontwerp is dit aan die eienaar van of die persoon in beheer van \u2019n openbare plek, openbare vervoermiddel, werkplek, of multi-eenheid woning waar rook verbode is om te verseker dat geen rook plaasvind nie. Dit sluit in die vertoon van tekens wat aandui dat rook nie toegelaat word nie. Hierdie sal ook van toepassing wees in privaat huishoudings om huiswerkers te beskerm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Verpakking en kleinhandel<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n Ingevolge die voorgestelde wette word geen vorm van advertensies vir tabakprodukte toegelaat nie. Alhoewel dit reeds vir etlike jare die geval is in media en borgskappe, verskerp die nuwe wetsontwerp dit. Wanneer dit ingestel word, kan geen tabakprodukte by die verkooppunt sigbaar wees nie, en kleinhandelaars en groothandelaars \u2013 met enkele uitsonderings \u2013 mag die produkte slegs op versoek van \u2019n kli\u00ebnt aanbied. Die wette sal die minister ook bemagtig om die presiese verpakking vir tabakprodukte te bepaal, insluitend die materiaal wat gebruik word en die lettertipe en beelde wat vertoon word. Handelsname en ander identifikasie sal so standaard of generies moontlik gemaak word. Die wette bemagtig die minister ook om regulasies te maak vir die verpakking en etikettering van \u2019n elektroniese nikotienafleweringstelsel, elektroniese nie-nikotienafleweringstelsel en \u2019n tabaktoestel, wat ook gestandaardiseerde verpakking kan insluit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Gesondheidswaarskuwings<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n Bo en behalwe gesondheidswaarskuwings wat reeds op tabakprodukte vertoon is, maak die nuwe wetsontwerp voorsiening daarvoor dat \u2019n pamflet by die produkte ingesluit word, wat die gesondheidsimpak van die gebruik van die produk uiteensit. Vir beide tabak- en elektroniese afleweringstelsels moet die verpakking vir \u2019n produk \u2019n boodskap op elke hoofvertoonarea van die verpakking vertoon wat verband hou met een of albei die skadelike gesondheids-, sosiale, ekonomiese of ander skadelike effekte van die gebruik van die produk; en die voordele daarvan om die gebruik van die produk te staak of om die produk nie te gebruik nie. Slegs voorgeskrewe beelde en boodskappe van die departement mag gebruik word, en die waarskuwings word nie toegelaat om minder as 65% van elke hoof vertoonarea te wees nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Soettand \u2013 en geen aflewering nie<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n Die voorgestelde wette plaas \u2019n algemene verbod op die verkoop van enige lekkergoed of lekkers wat soos tabakprodukte lyk. Dit is deel van \u2019n wyer inperking om hierdie produkte uit die hande van kinders te hou. Daarbenewens plaas die wette ook \u2019n beperking op die verkoop en aflewering van relevante produkte deur aanlyn- en koerieraflewering.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Die
