Present:
THE RIGHT HONOURABLE SIR J. G. WARD, K.C.M.G.,
PRESIDING IN COUNCIL.
WHEREAS the Picton Borough Council lately took
a poll on proposals to borrow, under "The Local
Bodies' Loans Act, 1901," and its amendments, the sum
of two thousand five hundred pounds for the purpose of
draining a portion of the borough, and also the sum of
four thousand pounds for the purpose of increasing the
water-supply of the said borough (such last-mentioned loan
being for two consecutive years' expenditure): And whereas
the notices calling the respective meetings of ratepayers to
consider the said proposals called the said meetings for a
day which was fourteen days after the last publication of
the said notices to raise the said loans, instead of not more
than ten days as prescribed by the said Acts: And whereas
the ballot-papers used at the poll of ratepayers in each case
omitted to specify the security for the said loans, but the
particulars respecting each loan were fully set out in the
notices setting forth the particular undertakings for which
the loans were to be raised: And whereas it appears that
the ratepayers of the said district have not been misled by
the errors and omissions aforesaid, and it is expedient to
validate the said proceedings :
Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Do-
minion of New Zealand, in exercise and pursuance of the
powers and authorities vested in him by section ten of
"The Local Bodies' Loans Amendment Act, 1902," and act-
ing by and with the advice and consent of the Executive
Council of the said Dominion, doth hereby validate the
notices calling the said meetings respectively, and also the
respective ballot-papers so used at the poll of ratepayers in
relation to the loans of two thousand five hundred pounds
and four thousand pounds aforesaid, and doth hereby de-
clare that the meetings so called as aforesaid and the result
of the poll in each of the said cases shall not be called in
question by reason only of the irregularities above re-
ferred to.

Clerk of the Executive Council.
