Hold the first pass to ban minor tattoos

2022-10-24

"The day before yesterday, a customer added me to WeChat and said that he wanted to come to the shop for tattoos. I saw that his friends found that he was a minor, so I made it clear that he could not be tattooed because minors were not allowed to tattoo." Recently, a tattoo shop owner in Shuyang County, Jiangsu Province showed his WeChat chat record with customers to the staff of Shuyang County Market Supervision and Administration Bureau who came to inspect. In front of a tattoo shop that has not yet opened, the staff stopped and contacted the owner anonymously through the contact information on the glass door, "Do you want a tattoo? Are you a minor? Add me to WeChat, I need to check..." At 10:50, the shop opened for business, and the owner pointed to the sign on the glass door saying that the shop did not accept minors' tattoos, When it is uncertain whether the customer is a minor, they will ask the other party to show their identity card or verify it by checking the other party's electronic identity card. "I know what you said about the" Measures for the Management of Juvenile Tattoo ". We do not give tattoos to minors." The staff walked into a shop that had just registered to provide tattoo services in June this year, and saw that its business license stated "tattoo services (except for minors)". The shop owner said that no minors came to tattoo. The staff of the Market Supervision and Administration Bureau told the reporter that at present, there are 51 businesses that can provide tattoo services in the county, all of which have posted the sign of "No Entry for Minors", and will also issue risk reminder letters to customers who come to tattoo. The reporter interviewed the staff of Shuyang County Health Bureau and learned that in the special inspection carried out this year, there was no illegal washing of tattoos by merchants for minors. "Recently, the number of minors involved in the case that we have come into contact with in carrying out social surveys and helping and educating activities has decreased significantly, even if there are tattoos, it is also mentioned previously." The assistant teacher of the local "Golden Flower" Juvenile Judicial Social Service Center said. Shuyang is the place where the first civil public interest litigation case of minors' tattooing took place in China. With the unremitting efforts of the local procuratorial organ, the local people's congress issued a resolution prohibiting minors' tattooing. In June this year, the Office of the Leading Group for the Protection of Minors under the State Council issued the Measures for the Control of Juvenile Tattoo (hereinafter referred to as the Measures), which clearly stated that no enterprise, organization or individual may provide tattoo services to minors. On the second day after the issuance of the Measures, the court of Xinghualing District, Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province sentenced a civil public interest litigation case of minors' protection, which is the first civil public interest litigation case of minors' tattoo in Shanxi Province. In the same month, the procuratorate of Fengfeng Mining Area in Handan City, Hebei Province visited and investigated more than 20 tattoo shops in the area. In the investigation, the prosecutor found that most tattoo shops refused to provide tattoo services for minors, but some shops not only refused, but also advertised "half price for students" and "20% discount for students", recommended complex tattoo projects to minors, and promised to wash painlessly without leaving scars. On June 28, the procuratorate of Fengfeng Mining Area carried out a case filing investigation. At the same time, it negotiated with the Market Supervision Administration and the sub district office on the rectification measures to strengthen the supervision of the tattoo industry and eliminate the tattoo of minors, and urged the performance of duties
