of such local authority, reasonable that the local authority of such adjacent district should contribute to the cost of constructing or establishing the said bridge, the following provisions in the said section mentioned shall have effect:

And whereas the County Council of Pohangina has made application to the Governor to authorise the construction of the bridge mentioned in the Schedule hereto (hereinafter referred to as "the said bridge"), and to apportion the cost of constructing the said bridge between the said Council and the Kiwitea County Council:

And whereas the Governor is of opinion that the work should be done:

Now, therefore, I, David, Earl of Glasgow, Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in pursuance and in exercise of the power and authority vested in me by the said Act, do hereby authorise the County Council of Pohangina to construct the said work; and I do hereby declare that the cost of constructing the said work—namely, one thousand nine hundred and eighty-seven pounds sixteen shillings, less a sum of five hundred pounds contributed by the Government towards the construction of the said work—shall be borne in the following proportions: namely, nine hundred and ninety-one pounds seventeen shillings and fourpence shall be borne by the County Council of Pohangina, and four hundred and ninety-five pounds eighteen shillings and eightpence shall be borne by the County Council of Kiwitea, and such proportion shall be paid by the said local authorities accordingly.
