Occupational Licensing National Law (WA) Bill 2010

Uniform Legislation and Statutes Review Committee· 14 April 2011general_report

The WA parliamentary committee recommends against passing the Occupational Licensing National Law (WA) Bill 2010 in its current form. The report cites a lack of clarity, excessive delegation of power to regulations, and uncertainty regarding uniformity and objectives. The committee argues the bill is too underdeveloped and ambiguous to warrant the loss of parliamentary sovereignty.

Impact

Occupational licensing applicants, licensees, consumers, and regulatory bodies in Western Australia. The bill's uncertainty affects businesses, workers, and the public seeking licensed services.
