This Act makes provision for local administration in Botswana by giving the power to the Minister to create townships and cities and to provide for administration of such areas and powers and duties of city and town councils and other public bodies. Townships are created wholly or partly within any Tribal Territory as defined in the Tribal Territories Act or within the limits of farms known as the Barolong Farms. The councils shall have the power to make by-laws regarding a variety of matters including rules to control common lands and pastures and to regulate and control abattoirs established by the Council.
