GOVERNMENT is moving to make it mandatory for all citizens to walk with a form of identification at all times in an effort for the police to enforce proposed changes which would raise the legal age limit to consume alcohol, use marijuana and gamble.

Homeland Security Minister Roger Alexander said on July 10 that the enforcement of the new laws was the responsibility of the police.

He said the Prime Minister had informed him of the proposal before she spoke at a political platform on July 7, in Penal. The PM proposed increasing the legal age to drink alcohol from 18 to 21 and increasing the age to smoke marijuana and gamble from 18 to 25.
