Question: Are golf buggies required to be registered to drive on common property in a gated complex? Is it the responsibility of the committee to enforce this?
Answer: Are the roads are public or not?
It usually all comes down to whether the roads are public or not. If they are then the buggy needs to be conditionally registered to use them as per this from Main Roads: Conditional registration explained
If not, then it is about the regulation of the use of common property like the committee can do with respect to any form of transport.
