Swimming Pool or Spa

All swimming pools need a Building Permit, and all swimming pools need a barrier fence.

A swimming pool includes a spa, and an above ground temporary pool more than 300mm deep.

If a body of water is not for swimming purposes (e.g. a fish pond), it is not a swimming pool, and does not need a barrier.

All swimming pools will be inspected on a 4-yearly basis.

Please refer to our swimming pools page for more details.
