A good friend just informed me about some strange laws in Australia (Victoria, to be specific) which he read on The Daily Telegraph (dated 17th August 2007 12:00am). The first is that “In Victoria Australia, only a licensed electrician is allowed to change a lightbulb” and the second is that “In Victoria Australia it is forbidden to wear pink hot pants after mid-day on a Sunday”. Out of curiosity, I have searched through all references to bills introduced into the Australian Parliament along with its transcripts arising from the hearings of committees when they are considering legislation and the Budget Papers. The conclusion is that both the laws above are not true. It will be interesting if there is a different finding from someone else on the subject.
