ORDER IN COUNCIL.

Present:
HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.
WHEREAS by the eighth of the Regulations
made under "The Lunatics Act, 1868," by
Order in Council on the fourth day of May, one
thousand eight hundred and seventy, and published
in the Gazette on the fifth day of the said month of
May, it is provided that every Registrar of the
Supreme Court shall, on the third Wednesday in the
months of March, June, September, and December
in every year, after the deduction of such moneys as
may be retained or expended by such Registrar under
the powers by law vested in him, pay or transfer
all surplus moneys in his hands on account of any
lunatic patient or his estate, or standing to the credit
of any such account as aforesaid, into the Public
Account; and the same shall be placed by the
Colonial Treasurer to the credit of the Public Trust
Fund, and be there kept as a separate account:
And whereas it may in some cases be expedient
that Registrars should be authorized to retain, at
the end of each of the quarters of the year specified
in the said Regulations, to the credit of their trust
accounts under the said Regulations, such amounts
as may be expected to be required for the discharge
of claims coming in course of payment shortly after
the commencement of the ensuing quarter:
Now therefore, His Excellency the Governor, in
exercise and pursuance of all powers and authorities
enabling him in this behalf, and by and with the
advice and consent of the Executive Council of New
Zealand, doth hereby make the following Regulation,
as additional to and to be read with and as part of
the said recited Regulations:—
REGULATION.
IX. If at any time within any of the said quarters
of a year, any Registrar shall be aware that payment
of any claims or demands against any lunatic's estate
will require to be made within the next quarter, and
if he shall make a report to that effect to the Colonial
Treasurer, and show that from the trifling amount of
such claims or demands or for any other reason it is
expedient that the Registrar should retain at his
trust account a sufficient amount to meet the same,
the Colonial Treasurer may authorize him to do so,
and in that case it shall not be necessary to pay such
amount into the Public Account at the end of such
first-mentioned quarter.
