Children and Young People Shelter Declaration 2006 (No 1)
Notifiable Instrument NI2006 – 277
made under the
Children and Young People Act 1999, Section 412 (1)  - Declaration of attendance centre, institutions and shelters.
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Section 412 of the Children and Young People Act 1999 (the Act) allows the Minister to declare that a place is an attendance centre, an institution or a shelter for this Act.

On 17 June 2005 the place known as Marlow Cottage, 31 Warrego Circuit, Kaleen (Block 4, Section 85 in the Division of Kaleen) was declared a shelter under the Act.

The declaration was made by a Notifiable Instrument NI2005-222 for an intermediate period to commence the day after notification of the instrument.

For up to four months the declared shelter known as Marlow Cottage will become temporarily uninhabitable, and therefore unsuitable for the purpose of a shelter.

This Notifiable Instrument NI2006 - 277 will declare the premises at 7 Archibald Street Lyneham and 189 Brigalow Street Lyneham (Blocks 9 and 10 Section 26 in the Division of Lyneham) as a shelter under Section 412 of the Act for a period of four months.

This instrument is necessary to allow the refurbishment of Marlow Cottage to proceed.
