The Scottish Parliament has passed an Act making provision for the statutory protection for retail workers, and that law includes the creation of a new offence. The provision is said to be necessary as the retail workers are subjected to criminal conduct when required to ask for proof of age. That request resulted, it is said, in the retail workers at that point acting in the public interest.

苏格兰零售工人的法定保护

苏格兰议会通过了一项法案，规定了对零售工人的法定保护，该法案包括设立新的罪行。据说这项规定是必要的，因为零售工人在要求提供年龄证明时会受到犯罪行为的影响。据说，这一要求导致当时的零售工人为公共利益行事。
