Present:

His Excellency the Governor in Council.

WHEREAS the Berwick Drainage Board lately proposed to raise a loan of three hundred pounds for the purpose of raising and strengthening the Waipori River protective embankment: 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,” as amended by section eleven of “The Counties Act Amendment Act, 1903,” relating to special orders, were not complied with by the said Board, inasmuch as public notice of the subsequent meeting for the purpose of confirming the resolution making such special order, although published for four successive weeks, was not given once in each of the four weeks immediately preceding the day on which the subsequent meeting was held: And whereas it appears that the ratepayers have not been misled by such irregularity, and it is expedient to validate the same:

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 validate the said special order, and accordingly doth 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 also declare that the proceedings relative to the said loan shall not be called in question by reason only of the irregularity aforesaid.

His Excellency the Governor in Council.

WHEREAS the Hobson County Council lately proposed to raise a loan of five thousand five hundred pounds for the formation, construction, and part metalling of roads in the Okahu Riding of Hobson County: And whereas notifications and proceedings in relation to the said loan purport to be taken under section fifty-nine of “The Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1901,” instead of section eight of “The Local Bodies’ Loans Amendment Act, 1903”: And whereas it appears that the ratepayers have not been misled, and it appears expedient to validate such irregularity in manner hereinafter set forth:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the power conferred by “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 notifications and proceedings in relation to the said loan shall not be called in question by reason only of the misquotation of the said Act as aforesaid.
