Excerpt from Opinions on Local Government Law in New Zealand: Given to the Municipal Association of New Zealand Between the Years 1892 and 1904 (to 30th June), Revised and Adapted to the Present State of the Law as Affecting Boroughs, Counties, and Other Local Governing Districts The use of the Table of Statutes may be explained to non-professional readers. Where a difficulty is felt in construing any particular section of an Act, a reference to this Table will at once disclose whether the book contains any matter bearing upon that section. Non-professional readers may also like to know that the letters a.o. (appeal Cases) appearing in the citation of an authority, indicate a decision by the House of Lords or the Privy Council. The time covered by the Opinions is about twelve years, during which period the number of affiliated Borough Councils entitled to obtain legal advice from the Association has grown from thirty-five to eighty. The work may therefore not be without interest to the sociologist, as affording some indication of the principal lines of municipal activity in New Zealand during a considerable period.
