The regulations under review set out requirements for caravan parks and moveable dwellings on topics including health and wellbeing, fire safety and emergency management, registration and construction standards.
The Victorian Government is reviewing these regulations, which expire in 2020, to assess how well they are working and make any necessary changes.
This will ensure the safety and standard of living for visitors and residents while assisting caravan park operators to effectively carry out their responsibilities.
The review process will run throughout 2019 and early 2020 with the new regulations to take effect by June 2020.
Consultation with stakeholders from across the sector is an important part of this process.
A consultation paper is now available, with submissions to help shape topics that will be considered in a Regulatory Impact Statement (RIS).
The RIS will discuss how the current regulations operate, along with options and rationale for changes, including a cost-benefit analysis.
It will form the basis for advice to the Minister for Planning on what future regulations should include.
