PROCLAMATION.

Superintendent of the Province of Auckland, in the Colony of New Zealand.

WHEREAS by an Act made and passed in the twenty-first year of the reign of Her Majesty Queen Victoria, intituled the "Auckland Waste Land Act, 1858," it is among other things enacted that it should be lawful for the Superintendent by Proclamation to declare that a certain block of land therein described should be set apart and reserved for certain Immigrants expected to arrive from the United Kingdom or elsewhere, other than the Australian Colonies.

VUW Te Waharoa — Auckland Provincial Gazette 1863, No 20

After Parliament moved to Wellington in 1865, the Auckland Provincial Council sat in General Assembly House (depicted).

It was nicknamed the 'Shedifice' as it was large and drafty, with a leaking roof. First premier Henry Sewell described it as 'a great wooden barnshaped affair, which might serve for a Hospital, a Jail, or a Barrack'.
