Rural Land in Nelson Land District open for Selection on Lease in Perpetuity.

PLUNKET, Governor.

IN pursuance and exercise of the powers and authorities conferred upon me by section one hundred and thirty-six of “The Land Act, 1892,” and section two of “The Bush and Swamp Crown Lands Settlement Act, 1903,” I, William Lee, Baron Plunket, the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, do hereby declare and provide as follows, that is to say:—

1. The rural land enumerated in the Schedule hereto is hereby set apart for disposal by way of selection on and after the thirteenth day of February, one thousand nine hundred and seven, at the rental specified in the said Schedule.

2. The said land may be selected on lease in perpetuity only, as provided by section one hundred and twenty-one of “The Land Act, 1892,” as it contains, or is supposed to contain, metal, mineral, or valuable stone, and shall not be purchased for cash.

3. For the purposes of “The Bush and Swamp Crown Lands Settlement Act, 1903,” the land enumerated in the said Schedule hereto shall be deemed to be “heavy-bush land.”

4. No general rate shall be levied or collected by any local authority from the said land for a period of four years from the date from which such land is disposed of, and no local authority shall have power to levy or collect any such rate from such land during such period.

5. After the first half-year’s rent has been paid by the selector the further instalments of rent payable by him for a period of four years shall not be demanded: provided that if at any time during the first five years of his occupancy the selector disposes of his interest in the land the rent so conceded shall be paid by him in full, and thereupon the Land Board may remit such instalments of rent payable by the incoming tenant, not exceeding in the aggregate the amount of rent previously conceded to the selector, as the Board shall think fit.
