Present:
THE HONOURABLE THE COLONIAL TREASURER PRESIDING IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS by "The Land Transfer Act, 1870," and by the several Acts amending the same, provision was made for fixing and prescribing the fees to be taken by District Land Registrars under the said Act: And whereas by Orders in Council dated respectively the sixth day of December, one thousand eight hundred and seventy-one, and the seventeenth day of May, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-one, it was ordered that certain fees should be payable under the said Act, as therein specified: And whereas by "The Land Transfer Act, 1885," repealing the said "Land Transfer Act, 1870," and the several Acts amending the same, it was enacted that the Governor in Council may from time to time prescribe and alter the fees to be taken by District Land Registrars under the Act now in recital; and that, until the exercise of such power, all regulations as to fees or otherwise duly made under the repealed Acts should continue in force: And whereas it is expedient that the power given by the said "Land Transfer Act, 1885," to prescribe fees under the said Act should be exercised; and that for that purpose the said recited Orders in Council should be revoked and annulled:

Now, therefore, I, William Francis Drummond Jervois, the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said colony, do hereby revoke and annul the said recited Orders in Council, as from the first day of January, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-six.
