Validating an Irregularity in the Voting-paper used in connection with a Loan of £6,000 applied for by the Kirikiriroa Road Board.

PLUNKET, Governor.

ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government Buildings, at Wellington, this twenty-third day of March, 1908.

Present:

THE HONOURABLE W. HALL-JONES PRESIDING IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS the Kirikiriroa Road Board lately took a poll on a proposal to borrow six thousand pounds for two successive years’ expenditure, under “The Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1901,” for the purpose of roads-construction: And whereas the voting-paper submitted to the ratepayers of the Kirikiriroa Road District at the said poll was made out under the provisions of Form No. 6 to the Schedule of “The Local Elections Act, 1904,” instead of under Form No. 1 to the Schedule of “The Local Bodies’ Loans Amendment Act, 1903,” and it appears that the ratepayers of the said district have not been misled by the difference in the wording, and it is expedient to validate such irregularity:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand, by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion, and in exercise and pursuance of the powers and authorities vested in him by section ten of “The Local Bodies’ Loans Amendment Act, 1902,” doth hereby validate the voting-paper so used as aforesaid, and doth hereby declare that the result of the said poll shall not be called in question by reason only of the irregularity aforesaid.

ALEX. WILLIS,
Clerk of the Executive Council.
