Building Restrictions

1 he existing restrictions on buildings and the socalled control of building material came in for very severe criticism at the architects’ meeting recently in Napier. Doubtless the restrictions were well intentioned and while the nation was at war were, within limits, justified. Their continuance at the present time is not justified, and in the result is causing much interference with legitimate trade and much inconvenience and annoyance to the public generally. The meeting unanimously resolved to petition the Government for the removal of the control which has proved such a failure.
