EXPLANATORY NOTE

The object of this Regulation is to amend the Rural Lands Protection Regulation

1990 so as:

(a)	to correct an inconsistency relating to the manner in which ballot-papers used in the election of directors of rural lands protection boards are to be completed by requiring electors to place a tick (rather than a cross) before the name of each candidate for whom the elector wishes to vote (paragraphs (a) and (b)); and
(b)	to provide for the use of combined stock warning signs (i.e. signs that depict both large and small stock) as currently the Rural Lands Protection Regulation 1990 permits only the use of stock warning signs that depict either large stock or small stock (paragraphs (c)–(g)).

The Regulation is made under sections 16, 96 and 217 (2) (j) of the Rural Lands

Protection Act 1989.
