At the Government House, at Wellington, this
twenty-first day of September, 1882.

Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE ADMINISTRATOR OF THE
GOVERNMENT IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS a sitting of the Assessment Court for
the Longbeach Road District was appointed
to be held on the twenty-seventh day of February,
one thousand eight hundred and eighty-two, and
the Judge of the Assessment Court being unable,
through illness, to attend thereat, the Court has
been adjourned from day to day, but no sitting of
the said Court has been held as required by "The
Rating Act, 1876," to hear and determine objections
to the valuation list of the said Longbeach Road
District: And whereas it has been made to appear
that no objections were made or desired to be made
to the said valuation list, and that the Judge of the
Assessment Court has signed the said list, and it is
expedient to validate the same:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Administrator
of the Government of the Colony of New Zealand,
by and with the advice and consent of the Executive
Council of the said colony, in exercise of the
powers vested in him by the eighteenth section
of "The Rating Act, 1876," and of all other powers
in any wise enabling him in that behalf, doth hereby
validate the above-mentioned things which have been
irregularly done in matter of form with respect to
the revision and making of the valuation roll of the
said Longbeach Road District, and, so far as he law-
fully can or may, doth hereby validate the said roll.

Clerk of the Executive Council.
