Regulations for the Land District of Nelson.

APPENDIX E.

NORMANBY, Governor.

IN pursuance of the powers and authorities in me
vested by the one hundred and sixty-ninth section
of "The Land Act, 1877," I, George Augustus Con-
stantine, Marquis of Normanby, the Governor of
the Colony of New Zealand, do hereby make the
following regulations for the Land District of Nel-
son:-

  1. All persons desiring leases of unoccupied por-
    tions of Crown lands (not exceeding 320 acres) shall
    lodge with the Land Board an application and de-
    scription thereof in the form or to the effect of the
    First Schedule hereto, and shall at the time of
    lodging such application pay to the Receiver of Land
    Revenue a deposit of 1s. 6d. per acre towards the
    expense of the survey for every acre of the land so
    applied for. No deposit in any case shall be less
    than Β£1.

  2. The deposit so paid shall be placed to the credit
    of the applicant, and applied, first, towards the ex-
    penses of such survey and the publication of the
    notice hereafter mentioned, and if there shall be any
    surplus the same shall be applied towards the pay-
    ment of any rent payable in respect of the land
    applied for.

  3. If the application is refused by the Board, the
    amount of deposit paid in respect of such application
    shall be repaid to the applicant.

  4. Before any application for a lease shall be
    granted by the Board, the Commissioner shall publish
    in some newspaper circulating in the district, once
    in each week for two consecutive weeks, a notice
    seting forth particulars of the application in such
    form as the Commissioner shall consider best.

  5. All sections of land to be leased shall, as far as
    the features of the country will admit, and, except in
    the case of natural boundaries, be of a rectangular
    form, and no section shall be laid off in such manner
    as, in the opinion of the Board, to render less avail-

  6. As soon as conveniently may be after the survey
    and determination of the rent, a lease executed by
    the Commissioner shall be issued to the applicant,
    but no lease shall be executed by the Commissioner
    until the Board has approved thereof: Provided
    that the lessee shall first execute a counterpart
    thereof, and pay for such lease the sum of Β£1 10s.
    Every lease shall be in the form or to the effect in the
    Second Schedule hereto, and contain the covenants
    and provisions therein set forth.

  7. If any applicant shall withdraw his application,
    or shall fail to sign and execute the counterpart of
    his lease for the space of three calendar months after
    notice shall have been given that the same is ready
    for signature, he shall forfeit his right to such lease,
    as well as any deposit he shall have paid at the time
    of making his application. Any such notice may be
    delivered personally, or sent by post, addressed to the
    last known place of abode or business of the applicant,
    or published in some newspaper circulating in the
    district.

  8. It shall be lawful for the Board, at any time
    before the execution of any such lease, to exclude from
    the land proposed to be comprised therein any land
    which to them may appear suitable for any of the
    purposes, whether temporary or permanent, for which
    Crown lands may from time to time be reserved
    according to any law for the time being in force.

  9. Particulars of every assignment whereby the
    land demised by any lease or any part thereof, or the
    estate or interest of the lessee therein is transferred,
    shall be recorded in such manner as the Commissioner
    thinks best, and the instrument of transfer shall be
    produced to the Commissioner for that purpose within
    one month from the date thereof. Upon recording
    any assignment the Commissioner shall indorse on the
    instrument of transfer a certificate or memorandum
    that the same has been recorded, and there shall be
    paid in respect of any such certificate or memorandum
    a fee after the rate of 10s. for the first one hundred
    acres or fractional part of one hundred acres, and 1s.
    additional fee for each additional one hundred acres
    or fractional part of one hundred acres so recorded:
    Provided that no assignment or transfer of a part of
    a leasehold shall be made, and no assignment or
    transfer of the entirety of a leasehold shall take effect
    without the consent of the Crown Lands Commis-
    sioner.

  10. All rents or moneys payable under or in
    respect of any lease shall be due and paid annually in
    advance on the first day of January in each year of
    the term of lease: Provided always that one full
    year's rent shall be paid at the time of issue on all
    leases issued prior to the thirtieth day of June in any
    year, and one-half year's rent shall be paid on leases
    issued subsequent to the thirtieth day of June in any
    year.

  11. These regulations are subject to the provisions
    of "The Crown Lands Sale Act, 1877."
