Standardisation Of Municipal By-Laws
Folowing , good progress with standard codes of by-laws relating to building construction, plumbing, and related matters, the Municipal Association of New Zealand has asked for the preparation of a similar standard code of by-laws covering all matters concerning good rule and government which lend themselves to the adoption of uniform requirements. The Association ad" vised that over fifty boroughs wished to participate in the project and would adopt the standard by-laws as soon as they were available. It was likely that many other muni-? cipalities would take similar action. It was estimated that the average cost of preparing such by-laws, were local authorities to operate individually, would be £750, with a total cost of about £90,000. The preparation, of the standard code was estimated to cost £5,000. Apart from the cost of preparation, it was impracticable for local authorities to formulate adequate by-laws, as no single one could draw on the wealth of experience which was made available by standardisation.
