A nation-wide inspection is to be carried out in Samoa to ensure compliance with a ban on single-use-plastics.
A notice from the Ministry of National Resources and Environment said
the inspection would take place on 30 January and would mainly focus on
retail outlets.
It warned that failure to comply could result in a fine of over $US3800.
Exempt from the prohibition are plastic bags used to package frozen goods such as meat and ice cubes, the ministry said.
Also exempt are bags used for local products including chips, kekesaina
or Chinese cake, ava, biscuits, coffee, tea, sugar, flour and cocoa.
