Disallowance recommended for Bayswater's cat control law; it conflicts with the Cat Act 2011.

Committee recommends disallowing City of Bayswater's cat control local law.

โ€œThis instrument represents the city's use of a different means to achieve its original intent, thereby attempting to circumvent the previous committee's processes and its well-known position on local laws that seek to control cats in public places and to contain cats generally.โ€
