SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1975
ANOTHER SAFEGUARD DISCUSSED WOULD BE PERIODICAL SPOT CHECKS BY THE TRANSPORT DEPARTMENT AND THE POLICE, AS WELL AS REPORTS MADE BY MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC.
THE EXISTING LEGISLATION ALREADY PROVIDES FINES AND IMPRISONMENT PENALTIES FOR ANYONE WHO CONTRAVENES THE REGULATIONS WITH REGARD TO ADVERTISING, AND THIS SHOULD HELP AS A DETERRENT.
UNDER THE LAW, OFFENDERS ARE LIABLE TO A FINE OF $500 AND IMPRISONMENT FOR THREE MONTHS ON A FIRST CONVICTION, AND A FINE OF $1,000 AND IMPRISONMENT FOR SIX MONTHS IN THE CASE OF A SECOND AND SUBSEQUENT CONVICTION.
+IT APPEARS THAT UNLESS THE DISPLAY OF A PARTICULAR UNDESIRABLE ADVERTISEMENT CAN BRING EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD REVENUE, FEW OPERATORS WOULD BE WILLING TO TAKE THE RISK OF DISPLAYING ÍT,+ THE TAC BELIEVES.
