The History of Anglican Care—The 1952 Act

The Social Service Council of the Diocese of Christchurch Act was passed in 1952.

This was an act to constitute and incorporate the Social Service Council of the Diocese of Christchurch, and to dissolve certain Boards in order that their functions may be taken over and their property vested in the Social Service Council of the Diocese of Christchurch, and to provide for trusts and incidental matters.
