W
HEREAS by "The Rating Act, 1876," it is
enacted that if the local body or the Assess-
ment Court fails through misadventure or accident
to do anything which by that Act is required to
be done in a fixed time, the Governor may, by an
Order in Council, published in the Government
Gazette and publicly notified, extend the time for
doing such thing, and may by any such order validate
anything which may have been irregularly done in
matter of form, so that the intent and purpose of the
said Act may have effect: And whereas the Mata-
kohe District Board, being the local body of the
Matakohe Highway District, constituted under an
Act of the Province of Auckland intituled "The
Highways Act, 1874," have failed by misadventure
to appoint a Valuer or Valuers as provided by the
sixth section of "The Rating Act, 1876," and no
valuation list for that district as by that Act pre-
scribed has been prepared, signed, and transmitted:

Now, therefore, I, George Augustus Constantine,
Marquis of Normanby, the Governor of the Colony of
New Zealand, in exercise of the powers and autho-
rities vested in me by "The Rating Act, 1876," and
of every other power and authority enabling me in
that behalf, do hereby, by and with the advice and
consent of the Executive Council of the said colony,
extend the time for the appointment of a Valuer or
Valuers, and for preparing, signing, and transmitting
the valuation lists for the said district, until
not later than the ninth day of February, one
thousand eight hundred and seventy-eight; and with
the like advice and consent do hereby order that such
valuation list shall be deposited, lie open for inspec-
tion, public notice be given, ratepayers and others may
inspect such valuation list and take copies thereof,
and make objections thereto, as provided by the said
Act, from the ninth day of February, one thousand
eight hundred and seventy-eight, to the twenty-
eighth day of February, one thousand eight hundred
and seventy-eight; and I do hereby, with the like
advice and consent, extend the time accordingly.

Act, 1876," do hereby extend the time for the pre-
paring, signing, and transmitting of the valuation
lists for the said county until not later than the
thirty-first day of January, one thousand eight hun-
dred and seventy-eight; and with the like advice and
consent do hereby order that such valuation lists
shall be deposited, lie open for inspection, be publicly
notified, ratepayers and others may inspect the
same and take copies thereof, and make objections
thereto, as provided by the said Act, from the thirty-
first day of January, one thousand eight hundred
and seventy-eight, until the twenty-eighth day of
February, one thousand eight hundred and seventy-
eight; and, with the like advice and consent, I do
hereby extend the time accordingly.
