Firearms Prohibition Orders Legislation Amendment Bill

Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.

This is an omnibus bill with the single broad policy to reduce firearms crime and its impact on communities by enabling firearms prohibition orders to be made and monitored against a wider group of persons whose behaviour and actions pose a high risk of violence.
