Delegated Legislation Committee (2021 - 2025)· 16 November 2023general_report

The WA Delegated Legislation Committee recommends disallowance of the City of Gosnells Bush Fire Brigade Local Law 2023. The Committee found the local law invalid due to procedural errors in its creation, inconsistency with the Bush Fires Act 1954, and unauthorized sub-delegation of legislative power.

Impact

The disallowance would require the City of Gosnells to revisit and correct its bush fire brigade local law, ensuring compliance with the Local Government Act 1995 and the Bush Fires Act 1954. Residents and the bush fire brigade are affected.
