G. F. BOWEN, Governor.

ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House, at Wellington, this
fourth day of December, 1872.

Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS under and by virtue of the powers
and authorities vested in him for that purpose
by "The Immigration and Public Works Act, 1870,"
and "The Immigration and Public Works Act
Amendment Act, 1871," the Governor did, on or
about the first day of March last past, make certain
Regulations for the introduction of Immigrants from
Europe into the Colony of New Zealand on the
nomination of persons resident therein: And whereas
by the said first-mentioned Act it is, amongst other
things, enacted that the Governor in Council may from
time to time make Regulations for the conduct of
Immigration to New Zealand, and for the nomination
of Immigrants by persons residing therein, as in the
said Act mentioned, and no action shall be taken
upon any such Regulation until the same has been
laid before Parliament: And whereas by "The
Immigration and Public Works Act Amendment
Act, 1871," so much of the 40th section of the said
first-mentioned Act as provides that no action is to
be taken under the Regulations made under the said
section until such Regulations have been laid before
Parliament, is thereby repealed: And whereas it is
expedient that other Regulations should be made in
lieu of those so made by the Governor as aforesaid :
Now therefore, His Excellency Sir George Ferguson
Bowen, the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in
pursuance and exercise of the power and authority
vested in him for that purpose by "The Immigration
and Public Works Act, 1870," and by and with the
advice and consent of the Executive Council of the
said Colony, doth hereby make the Regulations set
forth in the Schedule hereto, for the conduct of
immigration to New Zealand, and for the nomination
of Immigrants by persons resident therein: such
Regulations to take effect from and after the fifteenth
day of December instant, in lieu of those so made on
the first day of March last: Provided, however, that
nothing herein contained, or in the Regulations here-
by made, shall prejudice or affect anything lawfully
done or any right acquired or duty imposed by or
under the said Regulations of the first day of March
last.
