Governor.

ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House, at Wellington, this ninth day of April, 1888.

Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS by the one hundred and sixty-seventh section of “The Land Act, 1885,” it is enacted that the Governor in Council may fix the terms and conditions upon which the lands comprised in any village settlement shall be disposed of, and the mode of payment for the same:
And whereas His Excellency the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand has, by Proclamation issued under the provisions of section one hundred and sixty-six of the said Act, set apart the lands enumerated in the Schedule hereto as a village settlement:
And whereas it is expedient to revoke an Order in Council, issued on the twenty-sixth day of November, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-five, fixing the terms and conditions upon which the said lands should be disposed of, and to make other terms and conditions in lieu thereof:
Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers and authorities conferred upon him by the hereinbefore in part recited Act, and by and with the advice of the Executive Council thereof, doth hereby revoke the Order in Council aforesaid, and doth hereby fix the following as the terms and conditions upon which the said village settlement shall be disposed of, and the mode of payment for the same, that is to say,—

1. The lands enumerated in the Schedule hereto shall be open as small-farm allotments for sale or selection either for cash, or on deferred payments, or on perpetual lease.
2. The day upon which the lands shall be open for sale or selection shall be Wednesday, the ninth day of May, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight, at the Land Office, Invercargill.
3. The purchaser for cash of any of the lands enumerated in the Schedule hereto must deposit with the Receiver of Land Revenue for the Southland Land District one-fourth of the purchase-money at the time of application, and upon full payment of the purchase-money he will be entitled to a Crown grant, to be issued in the usual way.
4. If any of the lands enumerated in the Schedule hereto are selected upon deferred payments, the selector shall be subject to the provisions relating to suburban lands of Part III. of “The Land Act, 1885.”
5. If any of the lands enumerated in the Schedule hereto are selected under the perpetual-leasing system, the selector shall be subject to the provisions of Part IV. of “The Land Act, 1885.”
6. No person shall be allowed to acquire more than one grouped allotment, either for cash, or on deferred payment, or on perpetual lease.
7. The prices stated in the Schedule hereto shall be the prices at which the lands shall be open for sale for cash. If the lands are selected on deferred payments, an addition of one-fourth to the cash price of the section will be made; and, if the lands are selected for perpetual leasing, the annual rental of the sections will be five per cent. on the cash price of the sections.
8. If there shall be more than one application for any allotment, the right to occupy the same shall be determined by lot amongst the applicants.
9. Each applicant for a deferred-payment section will be required to make the declaration prescribed by section one hundred and thirteen of “The Land Act, 1885,” and shall at the time of application deposit with the Receiver of Land Revenue for the Southland Land District one-tenth of the price of the grouped allotment; such payment shall be deemed to be a discharge of the license-fee for the six months due on the first day of July, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight; and upon fulfilment of the terms and conditions prescribed by the said Act relating to land on deferred payments, will be entitled to the Crown grant, to be issued in the usual way.
10. Each applicant for any of the grouped allotments on perpetual-leasing shall be required to deposit with the Receiver of Land Revenue for the Southland Land District a sum equal to one half-year’s rent of the allotments included in the application, together with the sum of thirty shillings for the lease and registration thereof.
