Source: South Australia. Attorney General. Media Release.
"The State Government is now seeking feedback from the public on proposed knife laws that aim to stop knife related violence from occurring on our streets. The proposed amendments to the Summary Offences Act (1953) include; banning the sale of knives to children under 16; police powers to use hand held metal detectors under specific circumstances and making it an offence to supply a knife to a person knowing that the person intends to use it to commit as serious offence."
