Tasmanians looking forward to Cracker Night this Saturday are encouraged to have fun, but take care.
This year, a total of 514 type 2 firework display permits have been issued, with strict conditions designed to ensure safety and minimise disturbance to other people and animals.
While I hope Tasmanians enjoy these displays, it is important to be aware that they can be dangerous, and children and animals in particular should be kept safe.
Details of the locations of proposed displays are available from the WorkSafe Tasmania website www.worksafe.tas.gov.au.
