SURVEYORS’ INSTITUTE.
ENGINEERS’ AMENDMENT ACT. Per Press Association. CHRISTCHURCH Aug. 27. The annual report of the New Zealand Institute of Surveyors says that during the year the previous efforts of the council were crowned with success in the passing of the Engineers’ Registration Amendment Aot, making surveyors, who were licensed at the date of the original Act, and who had then substantial engineering experience, eligible for registration as engineers. The result had been that of those surveyors who applied for registration within the period prescribed 3L were registered as engineers. Twenty-eight of these are members of th institute. The council has taken up with the Engineers’ Registration Board the question of reciprocity in the matter of indenturesliip and examination of candidates. A diploma course of surveying has been set up by the University of New Zealand, but the whole matter is still under consideration pending the readjustment of the syllabus of examination which will be done in consultation with the Australian boards. Mr Preston Chambers was re-elected president. Messrs M. S. Smith, A. T. Boyle and M. H. Miller were elected to the council.
