thats true the public cannot buy fireworks
YOU MUST HAVE A LICENCE
it used to be that an out of stater could buy them BUT needed to have them out of the ACT within 6 hours
you could buy them with an out of state id but couldn't use them inside the ACT
NOW you cannot buy them at all unless you have a Small Explosives Licence and if you have one of those you can buy them anywhere
so fyshwick is now only the porn capital of Australia
