ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House, at Wellington, this
eleventh day of March, 1879.

Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE ADMINISTRATOR OF THE
GOVERNMENT IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS by "The Temporary Powers Act,
1878,"
it is, amongst other things, enacted
that, for the purpose of giving effect to any of the
Acts mentioned in the Schedule to the said Act, and
where no provision or no sufficient provision is, in
the opinion of the Governor, made by such Acts for
any of the cases in the Act first mentioned, the
Governor in Council may from time to time make,
alter, and revoke regulations, either general or
applicable to particular cases only, as he thinks
fit; and, amongst other things, for providing for
making and completing of any valuation list or roll
where a local body has been constituted after the
date prescribed by law for the making and comple-
tion thereof, or where any such list or roll has not
been made or completed as required by "The Rating
Act, 1876:"

And whereas the whole of "The Counties Act,
1876,"
has recently been brought into operation
within the County of Coromandel, but not in time
sufficient to admit of valuation lists to be made of
the rateable property in such county in accordance
with the terms of "The Rating Act, 1876:"

And whereas, for the purposes of enabling the
Council of the above-named county to levy rates
within the current year, it is necessary to appoint a
special time for the making and completing of
valuation lists of the rateable property in the said
county:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Administrator
of the Government of the Colony of New Zealand,
in pursuance and exercise of the powers vested in
him by "The Temporary Powers Act, 1878," doth
hereby, by and with the advice and consent of the
Executive Council of the said colony, make the
following regulations in respect of the making and
completion of the valuation roll of the rateable
property within the aforesaid County of Coromandel
for the present year one thousand eight hundred
343

and seventy-nine, and doth hereby further order that
the said regulations shall continue and be in force
during the aforesaid year only, and within the above-
named county alone.

  1. The Council of the County of Coromandel,
    being a local body within the meaning of "The
    Rating Act, 1876,"
    may proceed in all matters
    incident to the formation of the valuation roll for
    the said county, the appointment of Valuers, the
    making of valuation lists, the signing, transmitting,
    and depositing the same for public inspection, the
    making and hearing of objections thereto, and the
    sitting of the Assessment Court in relation thereto,
    in manner prescribed by sections numbered four to
    thirty-four, both inclusive, of "The Rating Act,
    1876,"
    with the exception that the aforesaid sections
    shall all be read and construed as if the words
    "April" and "May" respectively had originally
    been inserted in the place of the words "January" and
    "February" respectively, wherever the same occur
    in any part of the aforesaid sections four to thirty-
    four inclusive; and also as if the words "the date
    of this order" had been originally inserted in
    section four of the above-named Act in lieu of the
    words "the passing of this Act."

  2. Any act, matter, or thing required by any of
    the aforesaid sections four to thirty-four of the said
    "Rating Act, 1876," to be made or done at any par-
    ticular date, shall and may be made or done by the
    above-named Council, or any person or authority in
    accordance with the said Act, at a date which, under
    these regulations, shall, mutatis mutandis, correspond
    in time with the original date appointed by the said
    Act.

Clerk of the Executive Council.
