Zoological Parks and Gardens Act 1995

For the safety and well being of the public, and to prevent overcrowding in a zoological park, the Chief Executive Officer, or a director of a zoological park may prohibit or restrict further admission of the public to the zoological park or part of the zoological park in a manner determined by the Chief Executive Officer or the director.

A person who prohibits or restricts the admission of the public to a zoological park must cause a notice setting out the details of the prohibition or restriction to be displayed at each entrance to that park.

The Chief Executive Officer or a director of a zoological park may prohibit or restrict admission of the public under subsection (1) even if the zoological park is expressed to be open to the public.

The Chief Executive Officer or a director of a zoological park may by instrument delegate to a person or class of persons any of the powers of the Chief Executive Officer or director under this section, except this power of delegation.
