Western Australian Current Acts Western Australian Current Acts (1) A copy of the
fortification warning notice may be given —
(a) by
giving it to any person —
(i)
who is an owner; or
(ii)
who is actually occupying the premises and appears to
have reached 18 years of age,
in any way described
in section 76 of the Interpretation Act 1984 , registered post being used if
it is given by post; or
(b) if
it appears that any reasonable attempt to give it as described in paragraph
(a) is unlikely to be successful, by affixing it to the front entrance or
another part of the premises where it can be easily seen.
(2) Giving a copy of a
notice as described in subsection (1)(b) is to be regarded as giving it to
each person who is actually occupying the premises and appears to have reached
18 years of age.
(3) Although it is
sufficient for the notice to be given as described in subsection (1), the
Commissioner of Police is to make every reasonable attempt to give, as soon as
practicable, a copy of the notice to every person who has not already been
given a copy of it and who is an owner or interested person, indicating on
that copy when the submission period ends.
(4) If the notice is
not given as described in subsection (1) within 14 days after the Commission
issues it, the notice lapses and cannot be given at all.
