Australia is state by state based too, some states have more reasonable rules of "present it on request"

Others like nsw are carry always

AFAICT here in WA it’s “you should carry but it’s not an offence if you don’t and you can sort it out later a bit like the UK”.

But I’m not 100% sure so I’m making sure I’m carrying just in case.

That's exactly what it is in WA :)
