120B: Regulations as to camping grounds

You could also call this:

"Rules for Running Paid Camping Grounds"

The law says regulations can be made to control camping grounds where people pay to stay. You need to follow these rules if you run a camping ground for money. Regulations can set minimum standards for things like accommodation and cleanliness.

Regulations can also say how to apply for a licence to run a camping ground and what information you need to give. They can set fees for things like applying for a licence or renewing one. You might have to keep records and plans of your camping ground, and follow certain conditions to keep your licence.

Regulations can also allow for inspections of camping grounds and for licences to be cancelled. They can exempt some camping grounds or people from certain rules, and set out other requirements for running a camping ground. The goal is to make sure camping grounds are safe and healthy for people to stay in.
