(11) Water-supply Board (a) Revenue At the present time there is only one Water-supply Board in operation. Prior to 1941 the North Shore Boroughs' (Auckland) Water-supply District was in operation, but this has now gone out of existence. The water-supply district in existence at the present time receives no annual Government subsidy, and the amount of its revenue is relatively small. The following table shows the amount of its revenue : —
