Bill No. 120 of 1941. A BILL TO AMEND THE PUBLIC HIGHWAYS ACT,1929. NOTE. This Bill amends The Public Highways Act, 1929. At present there are conflicting provisions in this Act, The Public Service Vehicles Act, and The Vehicles and High­ way Traffic Act dealing with the closing of parts of high­ ways by Ministerial order or by regulation. To avoid con­ fusion these provisions are being struck out of this Act and The Vehicles and Highway Traffic Act, and the power is being given to the Highway Traffic Board on the request of the Minister of Public Works under The Public Service Vehicles Act.

The Minister of Public Works may still act through that Board to close any part of a highway and has essentially the same powers as given him by

section 25. W. S. GRAY, Acting Legislative Counsel. (This note does not form any part of the Bill but is offered in explanation of its provisions.) BILL No. 120 of 1941.
