Regulations for preparing Electors' Roll, County of
Waipawa.

NORMANBY, Governor.

WHEREAS by "The Counties Act, 1876" (herein
referred to as the said Act), it is, amongst
other things, enacted that, in all cases in which no
provision or no sufficient provision is, in the opinion
of the Governor, made by the said Act, it shall be
lawful for the Governor from time to time, for the
purpose of facilitating or more effectually carrying
into execution any of the objects of the said Act, to
make and prescribe all such regulations and orders,
either general or applicable to particular cases only
as he shall think fit, and such regulations and orders
from time to time to revoke or alter as to the
Governor shall appear to be requisite:

And whereas, in consequence of the valuation rolls
for several of the road districts in the County of
Waipawa not having been received in time, the
electors' roll for the ridings of the said county could
not be made within the time and in the manner pro-
vided by Part III. of the said Act:

And whereas, in my opinion, no sufficient provision
is made by the said Act for such a case, and it is
expedient to make regulations and orders applicable
thereto:

Now, therefore, I, George Augustus Constantine,
Marquis of Normanby, the Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand, in exercise and pursuance of the
powers and authorities vested in me by "The Counties
Act, 1876," and for the purpose of enabling the
electors' roll for the several ridings in the County of
Waipawa, under the said Act, to be made, do hereby
make the following regulations, and do order as
follows, that is to say,—

1. The Clerk of the said county (herein referred to
   as "the Clerk") shall, on or before the seventh day
   of October next, do and perform all things directed
   by the forty-second section of the said Act.

2. The said roll so corrected shall be signed by the
   Clerk, and shall come into force on the twelfth day
   of November next, and shall be the electors' roll
   for the several ridings in force until a fresh roll is
   made, as by the said Act is provided.

3. Any copy of such roll signed by the Clerk shall be
   evidence that the said roll has been duly made under
   the provisions of the said Act, unless the contrary
   is proved; and no defect in the title to office of
   any person making, correcting, or signing such roll
   shall invalidate such roll.

As witness the hand of His Excellency the
Governor, this twenty-third day of Sep-
tember, one thousand eight hundred and
seventy-eight.
