House of Assembly Fifty-Fifth Parliament, First Session (55-1) 55 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Illegal Tobacco Stores Illegal Tobacco Stores Mr BATTY House of Assembly Bragg Illegal Tobacco Stores Mr BATTY (Bragg) (14:57): Of the 78 short-term closure orders the minister mentioned in her answer, how many of those have since reopened? The Hon. A. MICHAELS House of Assembly Enfield Minister for Small and Family Business Minister for Consumer and Business Affairs Minister for Arts Illegal Tobacco Stores The Hon. A. MICHAELS (Enfield—Minister for Small and Family Business, Minister for Consumer and Business Affairs, Minister for Arts) (14:57): The compliance and enforcement team obviously closely monitor those during the closure order period and thereafter. So what we do see and what we hope to see is those stores reopen and not sell illicit tobacco. A lot of those are convenience stores. We are certainly hoping they do the right thing. We also have additional powers in relation to landlords, so when I issue a short-term closure order I actually write to the landlords as well and make them aware that they are hosting a tenant who is selling illicit tobacco and that gives them powers to terminate their lease. So we certainly are attacking it on every front. CBS does monitor the stores that have had short-term closure orders and will continue to do that into the future.
