Present:

THE RIGHT HON. JENNY SHIPLEY PRESIDING IN COUNCIL

Whereas by Letters Patent of Her Majesty The Queen, dated 16 September 1955, the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (hereinafter called the institute) was, by charter passed under the Great Seal, established, created, and incorporated into a body corporate and politic: And whereas by clause 15 of the said charter it is provided that the majority of the corporate members present in person or by proxy and voting at a general meeting of the institute specially called for the purpose of which due notice has been given shall have power from time to time to make such bye-laws as shall seem requisite and convenient for the regulation, government, and advantage of the institute its members and property and for the furtherance of its objects and purposes, and from time to time to revoke, alter, or amend any bye-law or bye-laws previously made but so that the same be not repugnant to the charter or to the laws and Statutes of Australia and New Zealand or any State or territory thereof: And whereas it is further provided by clause 15 of the said charter that no such bye-law, revocation, alteration, or amendment shall take effect until approved by the Governors-General in Council of Australia and New Zealand: And whereas certain bye-laws were made in accordance with the provisions of the said charter on 30 November 1956 and were approved, as required by the charter, on 25 September 1957: And whereas the said bye-laws subsequently have been amended from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the charter and the amendments approved, as required by the charter: And whereas the further amendments set out in the Schedule of this order were made to the said bye-laws by postal vote and were ratified at an extraordinary general meeting of corporate members held on 18 June 1998:

Now therefore, His Excellency the Governor-General of New Zealand, acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council, approves the said further amendments of the bye-laws of the institute as set out under each respective heading in the Schedule of this order.

(a) Appropriate societies active in the minerals and extractive industries may be formed within or become affiliated with the institute as council may determine. Societies’ members may be admitted in the normal way to appropriate grades of membership of the institute. The chairman of a society’s governing committee may be appointed by council to represent the society at council meetings either as a councillor or an observer. Council may terminate the affiliation of a society if it decides that such affiliation is no longer appropriate.”
