In areas where there is an overlap, the law that most restricts smoking must be followed. The law makes exceptions for the use and gift of tobacco by aboriginal people for traditional cultural purposes. This law is enforced by inspectors appointed by the Minister of Health. They are employed by a board of health. Police also enforce this law.
Inspectors have the power to enter and inspect premises during normal business hours.
They should obtain a warrant before entering a place that is also someone's home. They may not use force. Inspectors can ask to see documents or records. They can take away documents for photocopying. Photocopies can be used as evidence.
