What are the requirements for fencing of swimming pools in South Australia?
All swimming pools must have suitable safety barriers or safety fencing to restrict access by young children to the immediate pool surrounds. In South Australia, you can use any combination of fences, walls, or buildings to form the safety barrier around a swimming pool. Whereas some states of Australia require a swimming pool safety fence between the house and the pool, this is not the minimum requirement in South Australia. In South Australia, it is allowable to have access to the swimming pool via a child-resistant door.
