Shire of Kellerberrin Dogs Local Law

Delegated Legislation Committee (2001 - 2017)· 3 November 2011general_report

The WA Delegated Legislation Committee's Report 45 addresses the Shire of Kellerberrin's Dogs Local Law, finding it invalid due to non-compliance with mandatory procedures outlined in the Local Government Act 1995, specifically sections 3.12(5) and (6). The Shire failed to provide the Minister with a copy of the local law *after* gazettal and gave local public notice *before* gazettal. The Committee recommends the Governor repeal the local law.

Impact

The Shire of Kellerberrin will continue to operate without a specific local law relating to dogs. This affects residents and visitors to the Shire, as well as animal control and enforcement activities.
