Liberals want unlimited guns in the community

Liberals want unlimited guns in the community

 

Tasmanian Labor welcomes the overdue release of the Government’s firearms Bill for consultation.

 

We remain concerned that at a time when it seems like there’s a shooting or a gun theft in the news every other week, Premier Rockliff and the Liberals want unlimited guns in the community.  

 

Labor does not support that, and Tasmanians don’t support that either.

 

We look forward to scrutinising the Bill and working with the Parliament to deliver practical reforms that improve community safety while respecting the legitimate needs of primary producers, sports shooters, and recreational hunters.
