SPEECH BY THE SECRETARY FOR DISTRICT ADMINISTRATION

IN THE LEG IS LAT IVE COUNCIL

ON WEDNESDAY, 5TH FEBRUARY 1986

REGIONAL COUNCIL (AMENDMENT) 3ILL 1986

Sir,

I move that the Regional Council (Amendment) Bill 1986

be read the second time.

2.

Developments since the enactment of the Regional Council

Crdinance on 11 July 1985 have made a number of minor changes to

the Ordinance necessary. Certain transitional provisions for the

period when the Regional Council comes into operation have also

been found necessary. The Bill now before Members seeks to make

those amendments so that the Regional Council can operate

effectively when it comes into being on 1 April 1986.

3.

The establishment of the Regional Council has also made

certain consequential amendments to the Urban Council Ordinance

and the Public Health and Urban Services Ordinance essential.

Those amendments are covered by the Urban Council (Amendment)

Bill 1986 and the Public Health and Urban Services (Amendment)

Bill 1986 which have both been introduced into this Council

concurrently. I will explain the purposes of those two Bills when

move their Second Readings later.
