There is no legislation in place to prohibit the civilian use of Reserve Defence Force (RDF) premises. A request by a community group or organisation for the use of a building is fully considered in my Department and can be acceded to, if deemed appropriate. The primary factors that are taken into account when considering an application are the ongoing training and administration requirements of the RDF and the suitability of the building for the intended purpose.
