at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum. Such amounts may be afterwards deducted from the earnings of the member in such proportions, or added to the capital value, as the Commissioner may in each instance determine; but the buildings will remain the property of the Crown until wholly paid for, and if not wholly paid for when the lease or license is issued, then the value remaining unpaid shall be added to the capital value of the land, and 4 per cent. or 5 per cent. per annum thereon be added to the rent, according to the tenure, as the case may be. Buildings of the value of £40 or over shall be insured against loss or damage by fire in the name of the King to the full amount of the advance in some fire-insurance office carrying on business in New Zealand to be approved of by the Commissioner. This regulation shall not be acted upon without the special authority of the Minister of Lands, but, subject thereto, shall be applicable to lands already taken up under the regulations made under the said Act.
