Superintendent’s Office,
Auckland, 27th February, 1861.
The following Message and enclosure are published for general information.
J. WILLIAMSON,
Superintendent.
MESSAGE No. 42.
The Superintendent desires to inform the Provincial Council that he has assented on behalf of the Governor to the undermentioned Acts passed by the Council in its present Session:
- “The Harbour Endowments Act Amendment Act, 1861,”
- “The Appropriation Act, 1861,”
- “The Licensing Act Amendment Act, 1861,”
and that he has reserved the “Auckland Representation Act, 1861,” for the assent of His Excellency the Governor.
The Superintendent takes this occasion to thank the Provincial Council for the liberal supply granted for the public service of the year.
It is a matter of much regret that the Council has seen fit practically to refuse to consider questions of so much importance as those relating to the improvement and safety of the Harbour of Manukau, and to the supply of the City of Auckland with water.
The Superintendent believes that the Council will not be sustained by the people of this Province upon the ground of opposition to those works which has been taken up.
As the public business has been disposed of, and as the proceedings upon which a section of the Council is now engaged, whilst they largely affect the public property, are generally of such a character as must fail to secure the co-operation or approval of the Government, the Superintendent, in view of an approaching appeal to the constituency of the Province, thinks it expedient that the Council should be prorogued and has issued a Proclamation to that effect, copy of which is enclosed.
J. WILLIAMSON,
Superintendent.
Superintendent’s Office,
Auckland, 27th February, 1861.
[Enclosure.]
PROCLAMATION.
By JOHN WILLIAMSON, Esquire,
Superintendent of the Province of Auckland, in the Colony of New Zealand.
WHEREAS by an Act of the Imperial Parliament of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, passed in the session
