LIVERPOOL, Governor.

WHEREAS by section one hundred and nineteen of the Public Works Act, 1908 (hereinafter termed “the said Act”), it is, inter alia, enacted that in any case where the local authority of any district desires to construct a bridge, or to establish a ferry or ford, in any position that will, in its opinion, be of advantage or benefit to the whole or any considerable portion of the inhabitants of an adjacent district as well as to the inhabitants of its own district, and where it is in the opinion of such local authority reasonable that the local authority of such adjacent district should contribute to the cost of constructing or establishing the said bridge, ferry, or ford, the provisions of the said section shall have effect:

And whereas the Wairarapa South County Council has given notice and taken the steps required by the said Act, and has made application to the Governor to authorize the construction of the bridge mentioned in the Schedule hereto, and hereinafter referred to as “the said bridge,” and to apportion the cost of constructing and establishing the said bridge between the said Council and certain other local authorities:

And whereas it is also provided in the said Act that the Governor (with the view of determining whether or not the work should be done, or what proportion, if any, of the cost of the same should fairly be borne by any local authority, or what local authority should do the work) may direct any Magistrate or other person to be a Commissioner to inquire into and report to him on the matter:

And whereas a Commissioner was appointed, and an inquiry was duly held, in the manner provided by the said Act, in respect to the said bridge, and in respect also to the apportionment of the cost of constructing the said bridge:

And whereas such Commissioner did report to the Governor, after due inquiry, his opinion as to the matters respecting which he was appointed to report:

And whereas I am of opinion that the work should be done, and it is expedient to make provision under the said Act for the purposes and in the manner hereinafter set forth:

And whereas by the Public Works Amendment Act, 1913, it was declared and enacted that the words in subsection three of section one hundred and nineteen of the Public Works Act, 1908, “any order which may be made by the Governor hereunder” should be deemed to include any authority conferred on any local authority to execute any work and any declaration that any proportion of the cost of any work should be borne by any local authority, and that the authority to borrow conferred by the said section one hundred and nineteen should be deemed to extend to the local authority authorized to execute any work, and that the limit of any authority to borrow under the said section should, if the Governor thought fit, be set out in the Governor’s Warrant:

And whereas it is desirable to set out the limits to which the said Wairarapa South County Council and the said Featherston County Council, Carterton Borough Council, and Greytown Borough Council are respectively entitled to borrow under the said section one hundred and nineteen of the Public Works Act, 1908:

Now, therefore, I, Arthur William de Brito Savile, Earl of Liverpool, the Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers vested in me by the said Act, and of all other powers and authorities in anywise enabling me in this behalf, do hereby authorize the Council of the County of Wairarapa South to execute the said work; and I do hereby declare that the cost thereof, less such contribution as may be made thereto (if any) by the Government of New Zealand, shall be borne in the following proportions, viz.: The Wairarapa South County Council to bear seven-sixteenths, the Carterton Borough Council to bear one-
