Illustration for Local Government Act 1974

In New Zealand, a council is defined in the context of buildings. You need to know what a council is when it comes to buildings. The definition of council is found in the Local Government Act 1974, but the specific section about this has been repealed, which means it is no longer in use, and was removed on 1 July 1992 by the Building Act 1991.
