EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

No. 5 of 1973

	The proposed City Area Leases Ordinance 1973 and the proposed Liquor Ordinance 1973 will amend the City Area Leases Ordinance 1936-1971 and the Liquor Ordinance 1929-1971 respectively.  These Ordinances contain references to matters to be observed under the Canberra Building Regulations.  The Canberra Building Regulations have been repealed by the Building Ordinance 1972 and the proposed Ordinances will replace the existing references by references to corresponding provisions of the Building Ordinance 1972.

	The amendments are of a formal nature only.

	Section 30 of the Architects Ordinance 1959-1971 contains a reference to architects licensed under the Canberra Building Regulations.  As mentioned above, the Canberra Building Regulations have been repealed and otherwise the operation of section 30 has been exhausted.  The proposed Architects Ordinance 1973 will accordingly repeal section 30.
