Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS 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 any-
thing 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 a
sitting of the Assessment Court to hear objections
made against the valuation roll of the Wyndham
Road Board was appointed for a certain day, and by
misadventure no sitting of the said Court was held
on such day:

Now, therefore, I, George Augustus Constantine,
Marquis of Normanby, the Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand, in exercise of the powers and
authorities vested in me by "The Rating Act, 1876,"
and 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 sitting of the Assessment
Court for the purpose aforesaid until Thursday, the
ninth day of January now next ensuing, and do
hereby order that the said Assessment Court shall
sit on that day accordingly for the purpose of hearing
objections made against the valuation roll of the
Wyndham Road Board.
