    operation on the 17th day of March, 1875.

  2. In Regulation No. 2, after the word ""District"

    prove to the satisfaction of the Commissioner that
    he has been in occupation, either personally or by
    agents or servants, of the section or sections by
    virtue of which he claims to make such selection, and
    that he has made improvements thereon."

  3. Regulation No. 16 of the 4th of March, 1874,
    is hereby repealed; and any claims that may have
    been lodged with the Commissioner under it shall be
    dealt with under the next succeeding regulation
    hereby made.

  4. Regulation No. 17 is hereby repealed, and the
    following regulation shall be made in lieu thereof: -

  5. The Commissioner, as soon as he shall have de-
    termined who are the persons entitled to select in
    accordance with Regulation 2 as hereby amended,
    shall forward notice by post to the said applicants to
    attend at his office, personally or by agent appointed
    in writing, on or before a certain day to be named by
    him in such notice, when selections, as provided in
    Regulation 7, will be adjusted by him; and in case
    two or more of the said applicants shall select the
    same land, or portion of the same land, such conflict-
    ing selections may be decided by lot in such manner
    as the said Commissioner shall provide.

  6. All applicants entitled as above mentioned
    who do not so attend within the time limited, will be
    excluded from the benefit of the first allotment, but
    will be allowed to select within one month thereafter
    from such land in the said block as may still remain
    open for selection: Provided always that the said
    Commissioner shall have full power to regulate the
    shape of each particular allotment so as to carry out
    the duty hereby intrusted to him in the manner
    which shall appear to him best calculated to insure
    an equitable division.

  7. All land which shall remain unallotted after the
    satisfaction of all claims which may under the forego-
    ing Regulations be allowed by the said Commissioner,
    shall be surveyed into suitable allotments of not less
    than forty nor more than three hundred and twenty
    acres in extent, and shall be sold by auction by the
    said Commissioner at Napier, for cash, at such upset
    price as shall be fixed by the Commissioner and
    approved by the Secretary for Crown Lands, and
    after two months notice shall have been given by
    public advertisement of such sale. And the said
    Commissioner is hereby empowered to prescribe the
    conditions of sale, which shall be read publicly at the
    commencement of such sale.
