The law does not regulate the contents of cigarettes; therefore, there are no specified penalties. 

To align with FCTC Art. 9 and the FCTC Arts. 9 & 10 Guidelines, the law should regulate the contents of cigarettes and impose sanctions for violations.

Neither the Tobacco Control Act nor its regulations specify a penalty for failure to comply with disclosure requirements. Under the Act, where there is no penalty provided, upon conviction a person is subject to a fine of: (a) in the case of an individual, $50 for a first offense and $250 for a second or subsequent offense; and (b) in the case of a body corporate, $500 for a first offense and $1,000 for second or subsequent offense. 

In addition, the Secretary may suspend or cancel a license of anyone found guilty or convicted of an offense. An enforcement officer also may direct a violator to take steps to prevent future violations and remedy the violation.

The law aligns with FCTC Art. 10 and the FCTC Arts. 9 & 10 Partial Guidelines in that the law imposes sanctions for disclosure violations. However, to align more fully, the law should impose sanctions specifically designed for disclosure violations.
