Does the BAQA model body art regulation become law automatically?

No. It is a non-binding model and does not become law merely because BAQA publishes it or an authority downloads it. Only a properly authorised public body can adopt enforceable requirements through the procedure required in that jurisdiction.

Before adoption, confirm enabling power, legal review, evidence, public consultation, impact, fair decisions, implementation capacity and review. Read the Model Body Art Regulation.
