City of Rockingham Bush Fire Control and Bush Fire Brigades Amendment Local Law 2018
Delegated Legislation Committee (2017 - 2021)· 27 June 2019general_report
The Delegated Legislation Committee reviewed the City of Rockingham's Bush Fire Control and Bush Fire Brigades Amendment Local Law 2018 and found it inconsistent with the Bush Fires Act 1954. The amendment removed clauses required by the Act, making it invalid. The Committee recommended disallowance of the local law.
Impact
The disallowance ensures the removal of an invalid local law from public record, reducing the risk of misinformation. It affects the City of Rockingham's bush fire brigade management, which is transitioning to the Department of Fire and Emergency Services (DFES).
