Liquor Act 1992

An objection purporting to be by petition to the grant of an application is ineffective, and may be disregarded, unless—

each sheet of the petition has an identical heading clearly stating the subject matter of the petition and positioned to be clearly legible to every person whose signature on the petition is sought; and

each signatory to the petition adds particulars of his or her connection with the locality to which the application relates; and

each sheet of the petition states the name of the petition’s sponsor with whom all contact between the commissioner and the signatories to the petition is to take place.

A notice given by the commissioner, or the director, to the sponsor of the petition is taken to be given to all signatories to the petition.
