ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House, at Wellington, this twenty-second day of July, 1909.

Present:

His Excellency the Governor in Council.

WHEREAS by section eight of “The Native and Maori Land Laws Amendment Act, 1902” (hereinafter called “the said Act”), it is provided that the Governor may from time to time, by Proclamation published in the Gazette and Kahiti, declare that any parcel or parcels of Maori land, whether or not such parcels form portions of several blocks, and whether or not such parcels are held by the owners under separate titles, shall be vested in the Board as a site for a Native township; and shall by the same Proclamation assign a name to such township:

And whereas by Proclamation bearing date the twenty-second day of January, one thousand nine hundred and three, the Governor declared the lands comprised therein to be vested in the Maniapoto-Tuwharetoa District Maori Land Board as a site for a Native township, and assigned to the said township the name of “Te Kuiti”: And whereas the said Proclamation has, in respect only of the boundaries of the land comprised therein, been amended from time to time:

And whereas by section ten of the said Act it is provided, inter alia, that the Board shall have full power and authority to deal with such lands by way of sale, lease, exchange, or otherwise in such mode or under such terms and conditions as may be prescribed by the Governor:

And whereas by regulations under his hand bearing date the thirteenth day of February, one thousand nine hundred and three, the Governor prescribed the mode and terms and conditions upon which such lands might be disposed of:

And whereas by regulation nine of such regulations it is provided that “all dealings with allotments other than reserves, unless otherwise authorised by the Governor in Council, shall be for a term not exceeding twenty-one years”:

And whereas the land described in the Schedule hereto is situate in and forms part of the Te Kuiti Native Township, and it is expedient that the Maniapoto-Tuwharetoa District Maori Land Board should be enabled to deal with the same by way of mortgage:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand, in exercise of the powers conferred upon him by the said Act, and of all other powers him thereunto enabling, and acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council thereof, doth hereby authorise the Maniapoto-Tuwharetoa District Maori Land Board to alienate by way of mortgage the lands described in the said Schedule.

ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House, at Wellington, this twenty-second day of July, 1909.

Present:

His Excellency the Governor in Council.

WHEREAS the orders of the Native Land Court referred to in the Schedule hereto purported to appoint a successor to the shares or interests of the Natives named therein in regard to the land therein specified:

And whereas it has been alleged that the said orders were made through an error, mistake, or omission within the meaning of section thirty-nine of “The Native Land Court Act, 1894”:

And whereas an application has been made to His Excellency the Governor in Council to consent to the making of an application to the Chief Judge of the Native Land Court, in pursuance of the provisions of section thirty-nine of “The Native Land Court Act, 1894,” to amend the said orders for the purpose of rectifying the said alleged error, mistake, or omission:

And whereas the Governor in Council, after due inquiry made, is satisfied that a prima facie case has been established, and that it would be inexpedient to dispose of it by remedial legislation, or by any other procedure which would obviate litigation:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance of all powers and authorities in that behalf vested in him by “The Land Titles Protection Act, 1908,” or otherwise howsoever, and acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion, doth hereby consent to the making of an application to the Chief Judge of the Native Land Court, in pursuance of the provisions of the said section thirty-nine of “The Native Land Court Act, 1894,” for the purpose of rectifying the said alleged error, mistake, or omission, and that the said orders of the said Court, and any subsequent orders or instruments of title issued pursuant thereto, may be subject to an order of the Chief Judge under the said section thirty-nine of “The Native Land Court Act, 1894.”
