ACT Police have welcomed the Legislative Assembly's decision to pass the Firearm Prohibition Order Scheme.

Hello from the Amplify newsroom, I'm Tamara Cartwright.

After a debate in the Assembly this morning, new laws have been passed giving ACT Police an additional tool to disrupt organised crime and prevent firearm-related violence.
