RANFURLY, Governor.

ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House, at Wellington, this thirtieth
day of May, 1898.

Present:

His EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS by the twenty-fifth section of “The Lands
Improvement and Native Lands Acquisition Act,
1894,” it is enacted that the Governor, by Order in Council,
may make regulations for carrying out the purposes of the
Act: And whereas an Order in Council was issued on the
eleventh day of December, one thousand eight hundred and
ninety-four, making regulations prescribing the conditions
subject to which associations of persons may be formed to
settle on Crown lands, and clear and otherwise improve the
same:

And whereas the third clause of the aforesaid regulations
is as follows:—

“3. The land for each association will be divided into
sections of from 10 acres to 200 acres each, as the Com-
missioner may determine, and one section, but no more,
shall be allotted to each member of the association”:

And whereas it is expedient that in cases where settlers
have fulfilled satisfactorily the conditions and complied
with the regulations, and who hold sections of a less area
than two hundred acres, should have an opportunity of
increasing their holding up to that limit:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers
and authorities conferred by the said Act, and by and with
the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said
colony, doth hereby make the following additional regula-
tion, which shall be read as a proviso to the third clause
aforesaid:—

ADDITIONAL REGULATION.

Provided that in any case where the holder of a section
has fulfilled the conditions relating thereto to the satisfaction
of the Land Board, the Board may in its discretion allot to
him one or more sections contiguous thereto, but so neverthe-
less that the total area of all the sections allotted to or held
by him shall in no case exceed 200 acres.

ALEX. WILLIS,
Clerk of the Executive Council.
