Police are proposing licensed firearms owners pay the costs for their attendance at a burglary.

This proposal was included as part of the Arms Regulation: Review of Fees 2022, which was released in December and closes for consultation on 16 February.

ACT's Firearms Reforms spokesperson, Nicole McKee says this will price people out of legal firearms ownership.

"This actually goes against what's in the Arms Act, which is effectively saying that people should not have to pay to be a victim of a criminal. Section 80 really sets it out, where they say that police are not to charge for calls relating to potential offending."
