HIS EXCELLENCY the Governor-in-Chief has been pleased to direct the publication of the following Despatch, and Additional Royal Instructions, relating to the Government Pasture Regulations, for general information.

By His Excellency’s command,
ALFRED DOMETT,
Civil Secretary.

No. 6. Downing Street,
10th March, 1852.

SIR,—I have laid before the Queen your Despatch, No. 124, of the 9th of September last, with the Rules and Regulations therein enclosed which, by virtue of the powers vested in you by the 13th clause of Her Majesty’s Royal Instructions of 1846, you have issued for the purpose of regulating the manner in which Crown Lands in New Zealand may be occupied for depasturing purposes; and I have to acquaint you that Her Majesty has signified Her Pleasure that these Rules and Regulations may be allowed to take effect. But as the Royal Instructions of 1846 do not invest you with the power of authorizing the issue of Licenses to cut Timber on the Crown Lands, and as this omission must be considered as purely accidental, Her Majesty has been advised to issue the Additional Instructions (11th of March 1852) which I herewith transmit to you, for the purpose of empowering you to issue such licenses.

I have the honour to be

Sir,

Your most obedient
Humble Servant,

(Signed) John S. Pakington.

Governor
Sir George Grey, K. C. B.
