And whereas in the special order authorizing the raising of the said loan made the twelfth day of February, one thousand nine hundred and ten, by the Waimarino County Council, the area over which a special rate should be made as security for the said loan was referred to as “The Morikau No. 1 Special Rating District” :

And whereas in the special order making the special rate as security for the said loan made by the said Council on the twelfth day of February, one thousand nine hundred and ten, and publicly notified on page 3150 of the New Zealand Gazette dated the eleventh day of August, one thousand nine hundred and ten, and elsewhere the said rating area was erroneously termed “The Mangoihe No. 1 Special Rating District” instead of “The Morikau No. 1 Special Rating District” :

And whereas it appears that the ratepayers of the said district 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 in 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 special order making the said special rate, and the public notifications thereof as aforesaid, shall be and be deemed to be as good, valid, and effectual as if the said irregularity had not occurred, and that the proceedings relative to the said loan shall not be called into question by reason only of the irregularity aforesaid.
