967 THE CAPE NOISE ABATEMENT SOCIETY PAPERS
Manuscripts & Archives
University of Cape Town Libraries
A
Steering Committee consisting of a group of professional and business men was
formed in the Cape Peninsula in 1983. The objective of this steering committee
was to form the Noise Abatement Society of the Cape.
The
first Annual General Meeting of the Society was held on 22 November 1983. A
draft constitution set out the aims and objectives of the society, some of which
were; to increase the local and central government awareness of the need to
protect the public against noise pollution, to encourage these authorities to
introduce legislation to deal with the problem, to gain support from the public
sector and to stimulate research and debate on the subject.
In
1989 the society ceased to exist and all existing assets were handed to the
Department of Environmental and Geographical Science of the University of Cape
Town.
The
Collection consists of the Constitution, Minutes and Publicity documentation of
the society, from 1981 until 1986.
