Palmerston North Reserves Empowering Amendment Bill

Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.

The Palmerston North City Council holds certain land, which cannot be sold under the Palmerston North Reserves Act 1922. This bill provides the mechanism for the Council to be able to sell land for development if it becomes surplus to its requirements by amending the Palmerston North Reserves Empowering Act 1966.
