  • Family Violence (which results in the person being unable to control conduct which constitutes an offence)
  • A mental or intellectual condition, or a serious addiction to drugs or alcohol, that meant that they:
  • Did not understand that the behaviour was against the law, or

Declaration

I declare the information that I have provided in this application and any attachments to this application are true and correct to the best of my knowledge.

I understand the Infringements Act 2006 only allows for one internal review of an infringement notice, and Council is not required to consider any further correspondence in relation to a further review of the infringement notice once a decision has been made.
