    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, therefore, fairness should be applied as we consider these controversial issues. Part III of the miscellaneous provisions, Clause 14 states that:- ―The licensee shall- (a) maintain the site used for the display of an advertisement in a reasonably clean and tidy condition; (b) maintain the structure and hoarding used for the display of advertisements in a safe condition and in a manner that does not endanger the public; (c) upon removal of the advertisement, restore the site to a safe condition that does not endanger the public and a reasonably clean and tidy condition so that it does not impair the site‘s visual amenity; (d) meet all costs arising from the maintenance or removal of the advertisement. Mr. Speaker, Sir, Clause 16(1) states that- ―The authorized officer may, on any day other than a Sunday or public holiday, carry out an inspection of the advertisement. This is also a new situation. For us to know whether any advertisement has breached a law, there has to be inspections. (2) An authorized officer under subsection (1) shall- (a) before the commencement of an inspection produce a written confirmation of the officer‘s authorization to the owner of the property on which an advertisement is displayed; The reason is because some of the advertisement sites are within private properties. Therefore you must have a written confirmation to enter the property, so that you inspect it with due regard to decency, orderliness and the right to property under Article 40 of the Constitution.
