Landlords who knowingly allow their tenants to sell illicit tobacco and illegal vapes could be fined up to $165,000, sentenced to up to a year in prison or both, under legislation planned by the New South Wales government.
The changes, expected to be introduced to state parliament this week, would create an offence for commercial landlords who do not notify authorities or take steps to evict a tenant running illicit tobacco and vaping businesses from their premises.
