I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1) No, as these
applications are not made through the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation
and Safety. Notices issued under division 2A
are either issued directly to a landlord or property manager in the case of a notice
under section 71AB or the Magistrates Court in the case of notices under
sections 71AC or 71AE.
(2) Not applicable.
