Legal advice for aus
    #12336305 - 04/05/10 03:27 PM (13 years, 10 months ago)

If anyone is familiar with the laws in aus, it would be dandy if you could help me out.
I woke up to a txt this morning from a mate saying he was caught running from the cops with a goon sack, a bong and a pipe. I don't think he had any weed on him though. He's also over 18, so I don't think they can do much about the goon.

I tried googling laws about bongs in aus .etc but just found news articles about bongs in aus :madpirate:

This guy isn't the smartest person out... Seeings as he did run from the :cop: but he's a good guy and I don't want him getting a wafty fine or anything too bad.


One more thing which I thought of while writing this, does anyone know if you can refuse a search in aus? Is it similar to America?



If you don't know what goon is:

The best of the best

Found something.
Quote:

Current legal situation across Australia
The sale of bongs is legal across most of Australia except in Queensland and Western Australia. The Queensland Tobacco and Other Smoking Amendment Act 2004 makes it an offence to 'produce, sell or publicly display a cannabis utensil'. The maximum penalty is $10,500, or a $300 on-the-spot fine. However this ban has been largely unsuccessful due to loopholes in the wording. The Queensland Government is now reviewing the act.




Pretty good law... I was looking at bongs for sale in Surfers Paradise (QLD) like a week ago :facepalm:
So looks like it could be a $300 fine for him though:strokebeard:

Would this ban have a net-widening' effect of juvenile offences?
Not if the focus of penalties is on suppliers. To avoid continuing problems with the law and subsequent social problems caused by conviction, minors could be issued a caution and/or integrated into other programs for treatment and risk reduction of cannabis use. A community awareness program to address any confusion regarding the legal status of cannabis and related paraphernalia will be required.




Haha, cannabis education

:feelsgoodman:
