PUBLIC POOLS ACT 2015 (NO. 7 OF 2015) - SECT 28

Authorised person's direction––operational reasons

    (1)     An authorised person may direct a person at any time to immediately leave a pool facility because the pool facility is required for a specific purpose.

Example

a pool facility is to be used for a school carnival or other event

Note     An example is part of the Act, is not exhaustive and may extend, but does not limit, the meaning of the provision in which it appears (see Legislation Act

, s 126 and s 132).

    (2)     If an authorised person directs a person to leave, the authorised person must tell the person that it is an offence to fail to comply with the direction.

    (3)     A direction under subsection (1) is effective whether or not the person paid an entry fee to the pool facility.

    (4)     However, unless a sign is displayed at the entry of the pool facility stating that the facility will be closed for a specific purpose, the person who is directed to leave under subsection (1) is entitled to a full refund of the person's entry fee.
