Consequently, the existing provisions of the Ordinance relating to the theft of electricity and water and dishonest tampering of apparatus, etc., without a licence by or permission of the Board have been amended to bring in line the penalties provided under the Ordinance with those proposed in the amendments to criminal property damage provisions in the Penal Code. The various changes referred to above are set out as follows –

  9. 1. Clause 2 increases the penalty of a fine from $1000 to that of $5000 and of imprisonment from 6 months to 5 years. (section 6)

  10. 2. Clause 3 again increases the penalty of a fine from $500 to that of $5000 and of imprisonment from 3 months to that of 5 years. (section 7)

  11. 3. Clause 4 like the previous two clauses increases the penalty of a fine from $300 to that of $5000 and of imprisonment from 6 months to that of 5 years. (section 25)

  12. 4. Clause 5 also increases the penalty of a fine from $50 to that of $5000 and of imprisonment from 3 months to that of 5 years. (section 26)

  13. 5. Clause 6 again increases the penalty of a fine from $50 to that of $5000 and of imprisonment from 3 months to that of 5 years. (section 29)

  14. 6. Clause 7 again seeks to increase the penalties of a fine and imprisonment as follows – (a) a fine of $50 to that of $5000, and of imprisonment of 3 months to that of 5 years; and (b) a fine of $50 to that of $5000, and of imprisonment of 1 month to that of 5 years; and (c) a fine of $100 to that of $5000, and of imprisonment of 3 months to that of 5 years. (section 30)

  15. 7. Clause 8 like the above Clauses again seeks to increase the penalties of a fine from $50 to $3000 and of imprisonment from 3 months to that of 2 years. This change is more or less in line with the penalty provided for a similar offence in the Penal Code relating to any person resisting or preventing the lawful apprehension of himself or any other person for any offence.
