Exhibited Animals Act 2015

In addition to the mandatory conditions, an exhibited animal authority is subject to the conditions for the authority decided by the chief executive and stated in the authority (the special conditions).

The special conditions must be those the chief executive considers appropriate, having regard to the relevant risks and relevant adverse effects associated with exhibiting or dealing with an authorised animal under the exhibited animal authority.

Without limiting subsection (2), the special conditions may be about any of the following—

the maximum or minimum number of authorised animals that may be exhibited and dealt with under the exhibited animal authority;

prohibiting or restricting the reproduction of an authorised animal;

requiring the authority holder to maintain public risk insurance of a stated amount as the chief executive considers is reasonable having regard to the exhibitions and dealings authorised under the exhibited animal authority;

a record requirement.

Also, without limiting subsection (2), a temporary authority may include a condition equivalent or similar to a mandatory condition of an exhibition licence.

A special condition of an exhibited animal authority may allow something to be done or omitted to be done that, other than for this subsection and section 79, would contravene a mandatory condition of the authority, but only if the special condition applies for a period, of no more than 1 year, stated in the authority.Examples for subsection (5)—
