Shire of Pingelly Save the Numbats Local Law 2025
Delegated Legislation Committee (2025 - current)· 13 November 2025general_report
The WA Delegated Legislation Committee recommends disallowing the Shire of Pingelly's 'Save the Numbats Local Law 2025' due to inconsistencies with the Cat Act 2011. The law contains provisions exceeding the Act's scope, particularly regarding cat containment and responsibilities of cat 'keepers'. The Shire's lack of response to the Committee's concerns further prompted the recommendation.
Impact
Cat owners, cat management facilities, and approved cat breeders in the Shire of Pingelly are affected. The disallowance impacts local cat management regulations and enforcement.
