WA: Input Wanted Over Planned Changes To Caravan Park Laws.


(I would imagine anyone in Australia could put their input on the site as many travel to WA from other states.  This article was in the Seniors Newspaper.  This is your chance to put in a plug for no bells and whistles camping and hopefully more low cost camping.)

"Camping and caravan lovers are being urged to comment on proposed state government changes to caravan park and camping ground laws.   The proposed changes, outline in a consultation paper, include:

1.  Giving park operators longer licences, lower compliance costs and greater flexibility to meet consumer demands.

2.  Giving users greater choice and more affordable holiday options.

3.  Providing simpler and flexible laws to meet the needs of the locality and allow tourism to evolve and flourish.

Local Government Minister Tony Simpson said WA had more caravan, camper trailer and campervan registrations than any other state: 30 for every 1000 people.  

The paper comes as the government pushes ahead with its $21 million Parks for People scheme, which will provide more high quality, low cost holidays and at least 450 new campsites created in 16 national parks.

Comments close on September 1st (2014).

New campsites in National Parks? Many of their existing sites are dearer than some caravan parks.
