Under the Weapons Prohibition Act 1998, a Taser is classed as a prohibited weapon. Unauthorised possession or use of a prohibited weapon is an offence that carries a maximum penalty of 14 years imprisonment. Police officers do not have to have a permit for a prohibited weapon.

Security Grant

According to a release from the provincial government, Public Safety and Emergency Services has received grant applications from 13 communities that are interested in a different policing model to meet their needs.

Police should use force that is reasonable, necessary, proportionate and appropriate to the circumstances, and that force should be no more than is reasonably necessary for the safe and effective performance of their duties.

A Taser can be used by a uniformed police officer undertaking response policing who has been trained and certified to use the device. This includes police from alcohol and licensing enforcement, general duties, transport, and state crime. Police must not carry the device in a courthouse, correctional centre or detention centre but in some circumstances can carry one in a mental health ward. Recertification in Taser use must be completed annually.

Mike Ellis, Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Services said. “No one knows a community’s needs better than the people who live there. This funding will empower municipalities to explore different policing models that will improve public safety and address their community’s unique needs.”

Any action or inaction involving a Taser user that falls outside the procedures or rules of use is viewed as a breach, such as a “Hazardous Practice”. Such practices include:

Any deployment of a Taser by an officer during an incident must be recorded on the official Computerised Operational Policing System database.

If the deployment was inappropriate or not in accordance with policy, the officer can be referred to the Professional Standards Command.
