portions, and to construct any portion or portions
so fixed, and to take the lands for the same; and
any such portion so proclaimed shall be deemed
to be a railway within the meaning of the said Act
and the said amending Act and this Act :

And whereas by the said last-mentioned Act it is
also enacted that, at any time after the expiration of
twenty-one days from the publication in the New
Zealand Gazette, and in a newspaper ordinarily circu-

whole or a portion or portions of a line of railway,
the Governor, on behalf of Her Majesty, may enter
upon, take possession of, use and hold, or cause to be
entered upon, taken possession of, used and held, so
much of the lands defined in such Proclamation as
proposed to be taken as shall be required to be taken,
purchased, or permanently used for the purposes of
such railway, notwithstanding that an agreement
shall not have been come to or an award made for
the purchase or compensation money to be paid in
respect of such lands:

And whereas by the said last-mentioned Act it is
also enacted that in any case in which a road or right
of road has been or hereafter may be reserved in any
Crown grant, and in any case in which, under "The
Native Lands Act, 1865," or any law for the time
being in force relating to the sale of waste lands of

take a public road through any lands, it shall be law-

struct under the said Acts any railway or any part of
any railway, on the road so surveyed, notwithstanding
that such road may not have been made:
