Local Government Act 2002

Savings

Schedule 18: Enactments repealed

You could also call this:

“A list of old laws that were cancelled when the new rules for local councils were made”

This schedule lists all the laws that are no longer in effect because of the Local Government Act 2002. The list includes many different types of laws, such as acts about specific cities, counties, and harbours, as well as amendments to older laws. Some of these laws date back to the 1800s, while others are from more recent times.

The repealed laws cover a wide range of topics related to local government. These include things like city loans, water supply, harbour management, and county boundaries. There are also more general laws about how local governments operate and make decisions.

By repealing these laws, the Local Government Act 2002 aimed to update and simplify the rules for how local governments work in New Zealand. This change got rid of many old and specific laws, replacing them with a more modern and consistent set of rules for all local governments to follow.
