AT THE GOVERNMENT HOUSE, AUCKLAND,
THE 5TH DAY OF APRIL, 1860.

Present:
HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR in Council.

WHEREAS by an Act of the General
Assembly of New Zealand intituled
"The Militia Act, 1858," it is enacted that
it shall be lawful for the Governor in Council
from time to time to constitute throughout
the Colony, or in any part thereof, Militia
Districts, and such Districts from time to
time to abolish and the boundaries thereof to
vary, and to designate the Militia of any such
District by the name of a Regiment, Battalion,
Corps, or Company, as he shall think fit.

And whereas by an Order in Council dated
the 12th day of November, 1858, and
published in the New Zealand Gazette on
the 30th day of the same month, the Auck-
land Militia District was constituted. And
whereas by another Order in Council dated
the 13th day of January, 1859, and pub-
lished in the New Zealand Gazette on the
14th day of the same month, the Auckland
Country Militia District was constituted.
And whereas inconvenience has arisen from
the constitution of the City and Suburbs of
Auckland as two Militia Districts, and it is
expedient that the same should be abolished,
and one District, to be called the Auckland
Militia District, constituted in lieu thereof.

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Go-
vernor, by and with the advice and consent
of the Executive Council, in exercise of the
above-recited power, doth by this present
Order abolish the said two Militia Districts,
called respectively the Auckland District and
the Auckland Country District, and doth
constitute a Militia District to be called the
Auckland District, whereof the boundary
shall be the circumference of a circle whereof
the radius extends twenty miles from the
new Police Office now being erected in the
City of Auckland;

And doth designate the Militia within the
said District by the name of a Regiment.

F. G. STEWARD,
Clerk of the Executive Council,
