and to determine who are the Natives (if any) entitled beneficially to such land, and to order the inclusion of such Natives in the title, either together with or in lieu of the nominal owners or any of them, and for the purpose aforesaid to order the cancellation or amendment of any existing instrument of title, and the issue of such new Crown grants or other instruments of title as may be necessary, and generally to exercise in respect of the said land all the jurisdiction and powers conferred on the Native Land Court by subsection ten of section fourteen of “The Native Land Court Act, 1894.”

And it is hereby declared that this Order is made under the provisions in that behalf of “The Native Land Court Act, 1894,” and of “The Land Titles Protection Act, 1902,” and that this Order shall operate accordingly as a consent of the Governor in Council to the proceedings hereby authorised.
