Book Description

Excerpt from The Local Government Act, 1888, With the Incorporated Provision of the Municipal Corporations Act, 1882, and Other Acts: And the Whole of the Statutes, Rules and Orders Passed or Issued Since 1888, Relating to the Powers and Duties of County Councils, With Notes and Index It has been thought convenient to divide the work into Four Parts. The First deals With the Local Government Act, 1888; and the notes to the several sections of that Act have been carefully revised and in many cases re-written. The Second Part contains the incorporated provisions of the Municipal Corporations Act, 1882, the Ballot Act, 1872, the Municipal Elections (corrupt and Illegal Practices) Act, 1884, and other statutes. The notes to these have else been carefully revised and brought down to date. The Third Part contains the statutes passed since the Local Government Act, 1888, in so far as these relate to the powers and duties of county councils. The Fourth Part contains the existing Statutory Rules and Orders affecting county councils, arranged in alphabetical order of the subjects to Which they relate, with the explanatory circulars issued With them. The Third and Fourth Parts, and the notes to them, are of course an addition to the original work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
