1995—No. 597

EXPLANATORY NOTE

The object of this Regulation is to remake the provisions of certain reserve, showground and sportsground by-laws that were repealed on 1 September 1995 by section 10 of the Subordinate Legislation Act 1989. The new By-law:

(a)	deals with matters relating to the administration of the various reserves, including meetings of the trust board for a reserve trust that manages a reserve under the Crown Lands Act 1989, the appointment of staff of a reserve trust, the duties of the secretary and treasurer of a reserve trust, accounting matters and other general administrative matters (Part 2); and
(b)	regulates the entry of persons into reserves and the conduct of persons in reserves (Part 3); and

(c) contains other miscellaneous and formal matters (Parts 1 and 4).

This By-law is made under the Crown Lands Act 1989, including section 128 (the general by-law making power).
