PLUNKET, Governor.

ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House, at Wellington, this sixteenth day of September, 1907.

Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS the Petone Borough Council in or about the month of May, one thousand nine hundred and six, proposed to raise a loan of two thousand pounds for the purpose of completing and furnishing the Petone municipal shops and offices: And whereas an irregularity occurred in the proceedings to obtain such loan, inasmuch as it appears that the resolution of the said Council passed on the eleventh day of May, one thousand nine hundred and six, purporting to strike a special rate as security for the said loan and the interest, sinking fund, and other charges thereon, was not confirmed within the time fixed by section seventy-three of “The Municipal Corporations Act, 1900”: And whereas it appears that the ratepayers of the Borough of Petone 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 upon him by section four hundred and twenty-seven of “The Municipal Corporations Act, 1900,” and of every other power him thereunto enabling, and acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said colony, doth hereby order and declare that the resolution of the said Council passed on the twenty-fifth day of June, one thousand nine hundred and six, purporting to confirm as a special order the resolution of the said Council passed on the eleventh day of May, one thousand nine hundred and six, striking a special rate as security for the payment of the said loan and the interest, sinking fund, and other charges thereon, shall be valid and effectual in the same way as if the same had been passed within the time limited by the said Act for the passing of special orders, and that the proceedings relative to the aforesaid loan shall not be called in question by reason only of the said irregularity.
