Wijziging van de Opiumwet (verruiming sluitingsbevoegdheid)

Stage submittedUpdated 5mo ago

This motion proposes amending the Opium Act to expand the authority of officials to close premises where drug-related offenses occur. The goal is to provide law enforcement with more effective tools to combat drug crime and prevent the repeated use of locations for illegal activities. This change primarily affects property owners and operators of premises used for drug trafficking. It increases the legal grounds for administrative closures, potentially leading to faster or more frequent shutdowns of problematic locations.
