 Looks like Australia has updated their laws when it comes to Guides, Hearing and Assistance Dogs, which includes both puppy raisers and trainers in public places. As well as vehicles too. Starting Sept 1, penalties will apply to individuals and corps for breaching the Act. Good news for people with disabilities. Not sure what the older laws were at the time but reading the PDF law it seems to be similar to the ADA definition of disabilities.

If you have ever seen a map of Australia it's above NSW. Goes all the way to Cape York. This is a tiny bit of information about the Minister of Disabilty Services Annastacia Palaszczuk, born 25 July 1969, is an Australian politician. She has been an Australian Labor Party member of the Queensland. I cut and pasted her name in google. We have two governments here in Australia, Federal Government and State Government. She would be a State Minister. Each state has a Premier and the Premier chooses those ministers. 
Just a Note.
~ Just a bit of history there. grins~
