Validating the Public Notifications for a Loan of £4,000 to form and metal Portions of the Tuakau–Raglan Road, under Section 10 of “The Local Bodies' Loans Amendment Act, 1902,” applied for by the Raglan County Council.

RANFURLY, Governor.
ORDER IN COUNCIL.
At the Government Buildings, at Wellington, this second day of May, 1904.

Present:
THE HONOURABLE SIR J. G. WARD PRESIDING IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS the Raglan County Council lately proposed to raise a loan of four thousand pounds for the purpose of forming and metalling portions of the Tuakau–Raglan Road: And whereas a special order making a special rate has been made as security for the said loan: And whereas the provisions of section one hundred and twenty-four of “The Counties Act, 1886,” relating to special orders, were not complied with by the said Raglan County Council, inasmuch as public notice of the meeting for the purpose of confirming the resolution adopting such special order, although published for four successive weeks, was not given once in each of the four weeks immediately after the date at which such resolution was passed: And whereas it appears that the ratepayers have not been misled, and it is expedient to validate such irregularity:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in exercise and pursuance of the powers and authorities conferred by section ten of “The Local Bodies' Loans Amendment Act, 1902,” and acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said colony, doth hereby order and declare that the said special order shall be deemed and taken to be as valid to all intents and purposes as though the same had been regular in form, and doth hereby declare that the proceedings relative to the said loan shall not be called in question by reason only of the irregularity aforesaid.

Acting Clerk of the Executive Council.
