Law No. 2017-27 authorizes officers of the judiciary police and agents of the sanitary police to enforce the law. It is unclear if these officers have a duty to enforce.

To align with FCTC Art. 8 and the FCTC Art. 8 Guidelines, the law should specify that the authorized agencies and officers have a duty to inspect and enforce the law.
