What is a public place?

  • A public place is defined by legislation in each state and territory.
  • In general a public place is considered to be a place or part of premises that is open to the public or used by the public. Usually it is irrelevant whether you have to pay a fee to enter the place or not. If it is accessible to the public then it is considered public.
  • You need to check the relevant legislation in your state or territory as this definition may be slightly different in your jurisdiction.
