Kelly’s Law and new subbies payment rules pass parliament

Two major pieces of legislation passed WA Parliament last night around road safety and how subcontractors are paid.

Kelly’s Law passed parliament which will prevent people facing dangerous driving charges from getting back on the roads while waiting to front court.

Kelly T’Hart had just celebrated her 32nd birthday before her death.

The laws were named after Kelly T’Hart, 32, who was killed by a drunk driver in Furnissdale in May 2024.

The driver, Maddison Peace Bain, was arrested not long after and charged with the 32-year-old’s manslaughter, failing to stop and driving under the influence of alcohol.
