A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by "The Immigration and Public
Works Act, 1870," it is, amongst other things,
enacted that the Governor, from time to time, by
Proclamation published in the New Zealand Gazette,
may, as to parts within the North Island of New
Zealand, define the roads and the boundaries thereof,
and the bridges and ferries which shall be and be
deemed to be roads, bridges, or ferries, as the case
may be, under the provisions of the said Act, and
any such Proclamation may include existing roads,
but no such roads or parts of roads shall be included
if they are, in the opinion of the Governor in Council,
roads which should be constructed by the Superin-
tendent and the Provincial Council of the Province
wherein such roads are situated, as well as new road
lines; and the Governor from time to time may
revoke or alter any such Proclamation: And
whereas it is expedient that the road mentioned
and defined in the Schedule hereto should be con-
structed under the said Act: And whereas, in the
opinion of the Governor of the Colony of New
Zealand, and the Executive Council of New Zealand,
the said road is not a road which should be con-
structed by the Superintendents and Provincial
Councils of the Provinces of Wellington and Hawke's
Bay:
Now therefore, I, George Augustus Constantine,
Marquis of Normanby, the Administrator of the
Government of the Colony of New Zealand, in exer-
cise and pursuance of the power and authority in me
vested by the said Acts, and of every other power
and authority enabling me in that behalf, do hereby
proclaim and declare that the road within the Pro-
vinces of Wellington and Hawke's Bay described, and
the boundaries whereof are set forth in the Schedule
hereto, shall respectively be and be deemed to be a road
under the provisions of the said Act; and in further
pursuance of "The Immigration and Public Works
Act, 1870," I do hereby proclaim and declare that I
have caused a map and survey plan of the road defined
in the Schedule hereto, describing the course and
bearings and the admeasurements required for the
same, and through what lands the same is proposed to
pass, and the names of the owners or occupiers thereof,
so far as known, to be deposited in the offices of the
Public Works Department at Wellington, in the
Province of Wellington, and also at Napier, in the
Province of Hawke's Bay, which said maps and

survey plans are authenticated, for the purposes of
this Proclamation, by the signature of the Honorable
Edward Richardson, Minister for Public Works.
