Western Australian Consolidated Acts (1) A proprietor of
stock who desires to move any of his stock repeatedly to and from neighbouring
runs for purposes incidental to animal husbandry, may apply in writing to the
nearest Inspector for a special permit.
(2) An Inspector to
whom an application is made in accordance with subsection (1), may upon
being satisfied that the application is made in good faith, issue to the
applicant a special permit, subject to such terms and conditions, if any, as
are specified therein.
(3) Until it is
cancelled by an Inspector, a special permit authorises the proprietor to whom
it is issued to travel his stock to and from neighbouring runs as often as is
necessary for purposes for which the permit was issued, subject to any terms
and conditions as are specified in the permit.
(4) Where an Inspector
is of the opinion that the continuance in force of a permit issued pursuant to
this section may lead to the spread of disease or may otherwise defeat or
impede the achievement of the objects and purposes of this Act, the Inspector
may, at any time and whether or not the permit was issued by him, cancel the
permit.
(5) Where a permit is
cancelled pursuant to subsection (4), the person to whom that permit was
issued or the drover of travelling stock having custody of the permit, shall,
upon demand by an Inspector, forthwith deliver up the cancelled permit to the
Inspector.
(6) Where a permit has
been cancelled pursuant to subsection (4) an Inspector may at any time
issue a fresh permit in place of the cancelled permit, subject to such terms
and conditions as the Inspector thinks fit and specifies in the permit.
