KUALA LUMPUR, July 28 — The proposed Control of Tobacco Product and Smoking Bill 2022, an ambitious legislation with the aim of a generational end-game , would allow authorised officers by law unfettered access to an individual’s recorded information and computerised data.
Meanwhile, Article 34 states that access to be given to the officers include necessary password, encryption code, decryption code, software or hardware and any other means required to enable the officers to scrutinise the information or data. For second offenders, they would be liable to a fine of no more than RM30,000 or jail time for up to two years, or both.
The Bill also shows that the Health director-general has full power in the approval and cancellation of tobacco or substitute tobacco products, as should the Bill go through, distributors of these products must apply to be registered under this Act through the D-G’s office.
