Cemeteries and human remains - Subordinate Local Law amendments

Redland City Council is proposing to make minor amendments to two subordinate local laws:

• Subordinate Local Law No. 1.9 (Operation of Cemeteries) 2015
• Subordinate Local Law No. 1.13 (Undertaking Regulated Activities Regarding Human Remains) 2015

These changes aim to:

• Clarify the documentation required when making applications to Council for burials and other activities relating to human remains, and
• Revise some conditions imposed upon approval.

You can view the proposed subordinate local laws on this project page. The specific changes are outlined in FAQs.
