Australian Government
Introduction
Take a moment to have a bit of a look around where you are. Are you in a room? If you are, what can you see in this room? maybe there is furniture or windows. Can you see computers, televisions or radios running?
You may be wondering why were these questions asked. They were asked because in some way all these things are controlled by laws and regulations put in place by the Australian Government.
- Local council by-laws prescribe minimum room sizes and window areas.
- State laws define the safety standards for electrical goods.
- Federal Laws define the legal content for computers, radios and television programs. (Parliamentary Education Office, 2009)
The Australian Government is multi-tiered. This means that there are different levels of Government. This involves the Federal, State and Local Governments. The cooperation of these three governments is needed to make laws.
