16. Notice of protected place order
Feedback & supportThe Minister must cause notice of a protected place order to be given, in the manner that the Minister considers appropriate in the circumstances —
protected place order
“protected place order” means an order made under section 14 declaring any premises to be a protected place, and includes the order as amended under section 17;
to the authority of the protected place; and
to any other person who, in the Minister’s opinion, ought to have notice of the protected place order.
The Minister may, in addition to or in place of the notice of the protected place order required under subsection (1), cause the protected place order to be published in the Gazette.
Where the Minister causes the protected place order to be published in the Gazette in place of the notice of the protected place order required under subsection (1), the requirements of that subsection are taken to be satisfied.
To avoid doubt, the non-publication of a protected place order in the Gazette does not affect the validity of the protected place order.
