APPROVED HUNTING ORGANISATIONS (AHOs)

An invitiation to hunting clubs, organisations and associations

Under new legislation - the Game and Feral Animal Control Act - persons wishing to hunt game and feral species on declared public land in NSW now require a Restricted NSW Game Hunting Licence (R-Licence) from the Game Council of NSW.

To qualify for this licence, applicants must be members of Game Council Approved Hunting Organisations (AHOs) and must be accredited for the use of Firearms, Dogs, Bows or Black Powder.
 
Game Council invites hunting clubs, organisations and associations to apply for Game Council ‘approved’ status (as an Approved Hunting Organisation), as well as consider the educational options available to fulfil ‘adequate’ training requirements for the R-Licence.

By offering the R-Licence to your members, Game Council will pay a 10% commission for each successful new licence application originating from your organisation. With your   organisation’s permission, we will also register your details on our website for your   members, and non-hunting club members, to access.

Should you have any questions in relation to this process, please do not hesitate to contact Game Council NSW on (02) 6360 5100 or visit our website: www.gamecouncil.nsw.gov.au
