Setting apart Land for Special Settlement in Hawke's
Bay.
(L.S.) NORMANBY, Governor.

A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by "The Hawke's Bay Special Settle-
ments Act, 1872," as amended by "The Waste
Lands Administration Act, 1876," it is, amongst other
things, enacted that it shall be lawful for the Governor
on the recommendation of the Waste Lands Board,
by Proclamation in the Government Gazette, to set
aside, out of the waste lands within the Province of
Hawke's Bay the Native title to which has been extin-
guished, any block or blocks of land for special settle-
ment not exceeding in the whole thirty thousand acres,
on such terms as may be sanctioned by the Governor
in Council, anything in the existing regulations for
the management or disposal of the waste lands in the
province to the contrary notwithstanding; provided
always that no land shall be sold at a less price than
land of a similar description is now sold at under
"The Waste Lands Regulation Act, 1858," and that
the proceeds thereof shall be subject to any lien
already imposed thereon by any Act of the General
Assembly:

And whereas on the fourth day of January,
one thousand eight hundred and seventy-seven, the
Land Board of Hawke's Bay recommended His Ex-
cellency the Governor to set aside a certain piece of
land containing two thousand three hundred acres of
land, being portion of a block of land known as the
Maharahara Block, for the purpose of special settle-
ment by the members of an Association called "The
Bushmills Small Farm Association," upon the terms
sanctioned by an Order in Council of even date here-
with:

And whereas such recommendation as aforesaid
was intended to have been carried into effect in the
manner provided by the hereinbefore recited Acts,
but the same land has not been nor can it be so set
aside, in consequence of the Native title thereover not
having been extinguished:

And whereas the members of the said Association
have requested the Land Board of Hawke's Bay to
recommend the Governor to set aside another block
of land for the purpose of such special settlement
as aforesaid in lieu of the block so recommended as
aforesaid, and the Board has accordingly recom-
mended the Governor to set aside the block of land
described in the Schedule hereto upon the terms
sanctioned by an Order in Council, bearing even date
herewith:

And whereas by "The Land Act, 1577," the two
hereinbefore in part recited Acts were repealed, but
it was enacted that this repeal shall not affect the
past operation of the said Acts, Ordinances, or land
regulations, nor any matter or thing lawfully done,
nor any right, title, liability, penalty, or forfeiture
accrued or incurred; and notwithstanding the said
repeal, all Orders in Council, Proclamations, appoint-
