That is disgusting. I dread the day I need to renew my license . Looks like they have taken the “vetters” questions and included them in the application. What has it come to.

What I find interesting is they will not process the application if you don't list your doctor. (Not the clinic you go to but the individual doctor)

How many people don't actually have a doctor? I know I have never had a doctor...
In that case people have to go enroll with a doctor just to get their application processed?

Seems unlikely to help them assess if you are fit and proper....unless it is less to assess you at your application point and more of a way to keep tabs on people over the years.

My favorite is section L, name all the people that may have free unsupervised access to my home?

Hmm, I would have thought the Police would be better at naming all the local burglers than me?

isn't that something they wanted added to the vetting laws during the last round of ' how else can we screw over LFAO's ' . I didn't think that is law in any way or form , just a thing they wanted to add , and your license would then also hinge on your doc's personal opinion of you and your medical history.
Is this another of these items that are not law that the police are trying to pass off as law?
If I had the spare coin I would be talking to a lawyer about that one. And I also don't have a doctor. I just see whoever is available if I ever need one.

Noticed the medical doctor part does not need to be completed if you submit your application prior to 23rd December.

I just downloaded the renewal application form 2 weekss ago, it’s the old 2 pager, is this 35 pager hiding somewhere on Police website just for shits and giggles ?

No its the only application form that is available now. They will not accept the old 1 page form anymore

OMG, go back to the website today and it’s all changed.. at least you can do everything electronically without having to go into a station.

I laid a complaint on their online form and that got some action - given that part of the metric that they publicly point to when they tell their lies about how happy we all are with their crap administration of the FAL system is how many complaints they receive, just think of laying a complaint as having an extra vote
