supplementary loan £850; (2) the construction of a
portion of the Ahipaipa Road, and of certain bridges in and
adjoining the Okaiawa Riding of the said county, loan
£1,050: And whereas the public notification of such resolu-
tion appeared in the Hawera and Normanby Star news-
paper of the ninth, fourteenth, twentieth, and twenty-
seventh June, one thousand nine hundred and six, but
did not appear once in each of the four weeks immediately
preceding the day on which the said resolution was con-
firmed, as required by section eleven of “The Counties Act
Amendment Act, 1903”: 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 pursuance and exercise of the
powers 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 public notification of the
said special orders so made as aforesaid, and doth hereby
order and declare that the said special orders making the
said special rates shall not be called in question by reason
only of the irregularity aforesaid.
