Overview of the Act Responsibility for requirements
A person will be subject to the main requirements of the Act if they are responsible for qualifying premises or events, which is to be determined on the basis of whether or not the person has control over the premises in connection with an activity that is within the scope of the Act (this is referred to as the "relevant Schedule 1 use" of the premises).
	The principle of control has been utilised in other regulatory regimes, such as fire safety. A person who has control of premises in connection with their relevant Schedule 1 use is responsible for qualifying premises. For example, the operator of an arena or governing body of a school will be responsible for fulfilling the requirements of the Act at their respective premises.
	A person who will have control of the premises at which an event is to be held in connection with their use for the event will be responsible for a qualifying event.
	If there is more than one person who is responsible for the qualifying premises or event, they may act jointly in fulfilling the requirements and will, in any event, be required to coordinate with each other.
