Validating Proceedings in connection with Loan of £4,600, Onehunga Borough Council.

PLUNKET, Governor.

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 Onehunga Borough Council recently proposed to raise a loan of four thousand six hundred pounds, under “The Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908,” for the purpose of paying off a previous loan of the same amount for waterworks: And whereas certain irregularities have occurred in the procedure to obtain such loan, inasmuch as the resolution required by section sixty-four of “The Municipal Corporations Act, 1908,” calling the special meeting of the Council to pass a resolution (to operate as a special order) making a special rate in respect of such loan of four thousand six hundred pounds did not specify the place of such meeting; and, further, the place of meeting was not specified in the advertisement calling the meeting of the Council to confirm the said resolution making such special rate, as required by section sixty-five of the said “Municipal Corporations Act, 1908”: And whereas it appears that the ratepayers have not been misled by such irregularities, and it is expedient to validate the aforesaid irregularities:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers conferred by section one hundred and twenty-one of “The Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908,” and acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion, doth hereby order and declare that the said resolution and advertisement calling the above-mentioned meetings of Councillors shall be taken to be as valid as though they had contained the full particulars required by section sixty-four and section sixty-five of “The Municipal Corporations Act, 1908,” and that the proceedings in connection with the said loan shall not be called in question by reason only of the irregularities aforesaid.

J. F. ANDREWS,
Clerk of the Executive Council.

Validating the Voting-papers and the Public Notifications of the Special Order in connection with a Loan of £2,000 proposed to be raised by the Castlepoint County Council for the Purpose of constructing about Three Miles of the Masterton–Waimata Road, in the Whakataki Valley.

PLUNKET, Governor.

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 Castlepoint County Council lately proposed to raise a loan of two thousand pounds, under the provisions of “The Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908,” for the purpose of forming and metalling about three miles of the Masterton–Waimata Road, in the Whakataki Valley: And whereas the voting-papers used were not in the form required by subsection three of section eleven of “The Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908”:

And whereas a special order making a special rate has been made as security for the said loan: And whereas the provisions of section one hundred and twenty-four of “The Counties Act, 1886,” as amended by section eleven of “The Counties Act Amendment Act, 1903,” relating to special orders, were not fully complied with by the said Council, inasmuch as public notice of the subsequent meeting for the purpose of confirming the resolution making special order, although published for four consecutive weeks, was not published once in each of the four weeks immediately preceding the day on which the subsequent meeting was held: And whereas it appears that the ratepayers have not been misled by such irregularities, and it is expedient to validate the same:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers conferred by section one hundred and twenty-one of “The Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908,” and acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion, doth hereby validate the voting-papers aforesaid, and also doth hereby validate the said notification, and doth order and declare that the proceedings relative to the said loan shall not be called into question by reason only of the irregularities aforesaid.

J. F. ANDREWS,
Clerk of the Executive Council.

Validating the Public Notifications of the Intention to raise the Loan, and the Voting-paper, in connection with a Loan for £4,000 proposed to be raised by the Sumner Borough Council for forming, kerbing, and channelling various Roads.

PLUNKET, Governor.

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 Sumner Borough Council has applied to the Minister of Finance, under the provisions of “The Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908,” for a loan of four thousand pounds: And whereas the public notice of the proposal to raise the said loan was published at least four times in the Press newspaper, extending over a period of four successive weeks, but not once in each week for four successive weeks, as provided by section eight of the said Act: And whereas the said notice did not set forth the sum to be borrowed for each of the purposes therein mentioned: And whereas the voting-paper used at the subsequent poll of the ratepayers did not set forth the particulars of the notice, as required by section eleven of the said Act, inasmuch as it did not set forth the sum to be borrowed for each of the purposes mentioned in the said notice: And whereas the Governor is satisfied that the ratepayers have not been misled by such irregularities or defects, and that it is expedient to validate such irregularities:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the power conferred by section one hundred and twenty-one of “The Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908,” and acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion, doth hereby validate the said publications of the said notice, and the said voting-paper, and doth hereby declare that the proceedings with reference to the said loan shall be and shall be deemed to have been as good, valid, and effectual as though the said notice had been correctly published and the said voting-paper had been in due form.

J. F. ANDREWS,
Clerk of the Executive Council.
