Motions

City of Campbelltown By-Laws

Adjourned debate on motion of Hon. C. Bonaros:

That by-law No. 6 of 2020 of the City of Campbelltown concerning cats, made under the Local Government Act 1999 and the Dog and Cat Management Act 1995 on 24 December 2020 and laid on the table of this council on 2 February 2021, be disallowed.

(Continued from 14 October 2021.)

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (23:52): I indicate that the opposition is supporting this disallowance motion for the same reasons as in the earlier debate in regard to the Town of Gawler and cats.

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (23:52): Similarly, the government will not be supporting the motion for the same reasons as in relation to the Town of Gawler. For people who are avid readers of Hansard, I refer them to the excellent speech delivered by the Hon. Mr Lucas at item No. 18.

The Hon. C. BONAROS (23:53): For the same reasons as indicated before: dogs are dogs, cats are cats, tethering is cruel. I thank the opposition for their support on this and the Greens as well.

Motion carried.
