Debbie, do you know if young hunters who get a licence this way have to
eventually sit the test after they turn 18?

A couple of people referred to an online Age article about duck shooting. This
is no longer available. Please contact The Age on 8667 2000 if you'd like it
re-published.
Here's an article published 17/8/12 about new hunting laws. These were
introduced in November, with minimal public consultation. They include
provision for 12 to 18-year-olds to receive a licence to hunt ducks without
passing the Waterfowl Identification Test, and receiving it free. A licence
normally costs over $200.
