Vic: Tough new laws for Vic solariums

The Victorian government is planning new laws to tighten control of the state's solarium
industry.

Health Minister DANIEL ANDREWS has announced the industry's voluntary code of practice
will be written into Victorian law .. with penalties applying for businesses who breach
the regulations.

Under the laws solariums must give health warnings to customers about the risks of
using tanning beds and must obtain informed consent.

Mr ANDREWS says they haven't decided what the penalties will be yet.
