Transitional provision for the original 60 Regional Councils

24.(1) Despite paragraph 13(a) and section 23, the 60 Regional Councils that were in existence immediately before the commencement of this Act continue in existence after that commencement until the end of the election period for the round of Regional Council elections for 1993.

(2) For the purposes of the continued existence of those Regional Councils:

    (a) the regions, and the boundaries of those regions, as they existed immediately before that commencement, are, subject to subsection (3), taken to continue in existence until the end of that election period; and

    (b) Divisions 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6 of Part 3 of the Principal Act are taken to apply accordingly until the end of that election period.

(3) Paragraph (2)(a) does not prevent the Minister, under section 91 of the Principal Act as amended by this Act, changing the boundaries of those regions during the period between the commencement of this section and the end of that election period.
