Acts of Parliament: 1836–2019
The list below of South Australian Acts has been sourced through:
- the Flinders University South Australian Legal History Archive
- Australasian Legal Information Institute, South Australian Resources
- South Australian Legislation website.
The list is presented in chronological order and includes principal Acts and Acts amending those principal Acts. The purpose of some Acts listed may not be principally about the control of pest animals or weeds, but these have been included as part of the Act related to their control, such as the Crown Lands Act Amendment Act which provided for erection of rabbit-proof and vermin fences.
Other Acts included that require explanation are:
- the entire Horses Act is included as it provided for “the control of inferior kinds of horses that were likely to cause great injury to the colony”
- various Dog Acts have been included where they provided for “abating the Nuisance and Damage to Property in the colony”.
Out of interest, a second table of Acts is included listing Acts that were passed, providing for the protection of native and “acclimatised” animals. It is ironic that some introduced animals that were protected under these Acts were shortly after declared pests, requiring landowners to destroy them.
