Validating Proceedings in connection with Mataura Borough Council Loan of £7,000.

ISLINGTON, Governor.
ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government Buildings, at Wellington, this fifteenth day of February, 1911.

Present:

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

WHEREAS the Mataura Borough Council lately proposed to raise a loan of £7,000 under the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908, for the purpose of supplying the borough with water and providing drainage for the inhabitants: And whereas an irregularity or defect has occurred in the procedure to obtain such loan, inasmuch as the voting-paper required by section eleven subsection (c) of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908, was not in the form numbered (1) in the Second Schedule to the Act, and also did not contain full particulars of the notice mentioned in section eight of the said Act, or a statement giving the full purport and effect of that notice, by reason that such voting-paper omitted in particular a statement of the proposed security and the provision for payment of the loan and a statement whether or not it was proposed to pay out of the loan the cost of raising the loan or the interest for the first year: And whereas it appears that the ratepayers have not been misled by such irregularity or defect, and it is expedient to validate the aforesaid proceedings:

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 voting-paper shall be taken to be as valid as though it had contained the full particulars required by section eleven subsection (c) of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908: And His Excellency the Governor, with such advice and consent as aforesaid, doth hereby validate such proceedings, and doth further order and declare that the proceedings in connection with the said loan shall not be called in question by reason only of the irregularity or defect aforesaid.

Clerk of the Executive Council.
