Actually, there is, so why isn't it enforced?
Where: Yamba, NSW, 2464
When: Saturday, 4 December, 8.30pm
What: Illegal fireworks
WorkCover NSW requires that:
The possession, use, storage and transport of display fireworks is restricted to individuals holding a:
- pyrotechnician's licence
- fireworks (single use) licence.
There are safety and security requirements for the storage of fireworks depending on the amount and type of fireworks to be stored. Licences are also required to:
- handle fireworks without supervision
- manufacture fireworks
- sell fireworks.
A licence will only be issued for a legitimate reason such as an organised public display that is open to the public. The display must be organised by a community or private organisation for a show, fete, carnival, cultural, religious or sporting event.
Notified fireworks are displayed on WorkCover's site and can be found here.
