THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE.
[No. 98

first year: And whereas the provisions of section eight of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908, relating to notice of intention to raise loan, were not strictly complied with by the said Council, inasmuch as, although four public notices of the said notice of intention to raise the said loan were given, such notices were published in two newspapers circulating in the district instead of one newspaper only: 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 order and declare that the said notice of intention to raise the said loan shall be and be deemed to have been as good, valid, and effectual as if the said notices had been regularly made, and doth hereby validate the same accordingly; and doth hereby also declare that the proceedings relative to the said loan shall not be called into question by reason only of the irregularity aforesaid.

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