Illustration for Local Government Act 1974

The principal officer is in charge of a meeting where a chairman is elected. You need to know that this rule is part of the Local Government Act 1974, which is a law about how local councils work. This particular rule, section 94, is no longer in use because it was repealed on 1 November 1989 by the Local Government Amendment Act (No 2) 1989, which you can find more information about at https://legislation.govt.nz/act/public/1986/0120/latest/link.aspx?id=DLM159222.
