 Pursuant to a notification by the Fire and Rescue Services Commissioner published in the gazette on 6 August
2004 under section 63 of the Fire and Emergency Service Act 1990, the listed fires can generally be lit without a
permit issued by a fire warden, provided adequate precautions are taken to prevent the spread of fire and the fire
confirms with any local law. Local laws can therefore regulate these types of fire, which is the purpose of this
subordinate local law.
