Present:

THE RIGHT HONOURABLE SIR J. G. WARD, K.C.M.G., PRESIDING IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS by section ninety-one of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908 (hereinafter referred to as “the said Act”), it is provided that where part of the area over which a special rate is made as security for a loan is merged or included within the district of a local authority other than the local authority that made the rate, then, upon the written application of the local authority that raised the loan, or of the Minister, the Governor in Council may adjust or apportion the liability in respect of such loan among the respective local authorities affected by such merger or inclusion: And whereas loans of one thousand five hundred pounds and one hundred and fifty pounds for the construction and metalling of the Castlecliff Road were raised by the Waitotara County Council: And whereas part of the area over which the special rates were made as security for those loans was included in the Gonville Town District, and an adjustment of the liability in respect of those loans was made between the Waitotara County Council and the Gonville Town Board: And whereas the inscribed amount of the portion of those loans adjusted to the Waitotara County Council was six hundred and twelve pounds sixteen shillings: And whereas another part of the said area then remaining in the Waitotara County has since been included in the Castlecliff Town District: And whereas the notices of the proposed apportionment of the said liability of six hundred and twelve pounds sixteen shillings in respect of those loans between the Waitotara County Council and the Castlecliff Town Board were duly given as required by the said section ninety-one and the regulations under the said Act, and no objections thereto have been received: And whereas written application has been made by the Waitotara County Council that the said liability of six hundred and twelve pounds sixteen shillings in respect of those loans may be apportioned:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers and authorities conferred on him by the said Act, and acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion, doth hereby apportion the liability of six hundred and twelve pounds sixteen shillings in respect of the above-recited loans as follows: The sum of fifty-five pounds fourteen shillings shall continue to be a liability of the Waitotara County Council, and the sum of five hundred and fifty-seven pounds two shillings shall be a liability of the Castlecliff Town Board.

ISLINGTON, Governor.

ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government Buildings, at Wellington, this eighth day of August, 1910.

Present:

THE RIGHT HONOURABLE SIR J. G. WARD, K.C.M.G., PRESIDING IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS the Hokitika Borough Council lately proposed to raise a loan of two thousand pounds, under the New Zealand State-guaranteed Advances Act, 1909, for the purpose of completing water and drainage works and for extra reticulation in the Borough of Hokitika: And whereas the special order made by the said Borough Council making and levying a special rate of five-eighths of a penny in the pound upon the rateable value of all rateable property comprised in the Borough of Hokitika, for the purpose of providing the interest and other charges on the said loan of two thousand pounds, was not in accordance with the form in the Second Schedule to the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908, inasmuch as the term of the said loan was not stated: And whereas it appears that the ratepayers have not been misled by such irregularity, 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 and authorities 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 special order, and doth hereby order and declare that the said special order shall be as valid as if the term of the said loan had been stated therein; and that the said proposal or loan shall not be called into question by reason only of the defect or irregularity aforesaid.

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