Description

Western Australia introduces new police powers and security measures ahead of the Land Forces defence expo in Perth, following violent protests at the Melbourne event two years ago. The government establishes a protected zone around the venue with expanded search powers, checkpoint authority and face covering removal capabilities. Security costs are budgeted at $10.5 million, with 10,000 to 20,000 delegates expected to attend the three-day conference for global defence manufacturers.
