Western Australia’s (WA) Labor government has announced that a state-sponsored $64 million firearms buyback will begin next week to coincide with proposed laws aimed at overhauling gun ownership in the state.
Changes to WA’s new written authority provisions, known as property letters, will improve public safety, reduce unnecessary firearm ownership, and give control back to landowners and leaseholders, said the WA Government in an online statement.
In WA up to 90,000 people possess around 360,000 guns.
