to some other public object of importance,
while by the power which is to be reserved
of dispersing those men in different districts,
together with the reformatory nature of
their previous punishment, there is good
reason to hope that their presence, in moderate numbers, will not be found injurious
to the general character of the community.
Considering the urgent representations which
are constantly received at this office of the
want of an adequate supply of labour, it
seems possible that if this system of convict
discipline were well understood, the colonists might be desirous of receiving men
upon the foregoing terms, in their last stage
of punishment, and after they had earned a
favourable character from the authority under whose control they had been placed.
I should be glad therefore, if you would ascertain, in the manner which may appear to
you best suited to the purpose, how far this
would be the prevalent opinion in the colony under your government, and if I should
learn from you that the measure would be
wished for, I should be prepared to take
the necessary steps for including New Zealand in the places into which convicts holding tickets of leave may be introduced.

I have the honour,

(Signed)
Grey.

To Governor Grey;
