district is largely used by or for the purpose of traffic to or
from any other district or districts, and affords access to or
from such districts, and the Governor is of opinion that it is
equitable that the latter district or districts should contribute
towards the cost of constructing or maintaining the whole
or any portion of such road in the former district, the Go-
vernor may from time to time apportion the cost of construct-
ing or maintaining the whole or any part of such road among
the local authorities of the respective districts as he thinks
fit; and for that purpose, and to enable effect to be given
hereto, the provisions of section one hundred and nineteen
hereof shall, mutatis mutandis, apply in the case of the con-
struction or reconstruction of the road, and the provisions of
section one hundred and twenty hereof in the case of the
maintenance of the road :

And whereas the Wanganui Borough Council has given
notice, and has taken the steps required by section one hun-
dred and nineteen of the said Act, and has made application
to the Governor to authorize the construction of the road
described in the Schedule hereto (hereinafter referred to as
“the said work”), and to apportion the cost of the said
work between the said Council, the Wanganui County Council,
the Wanganui Harbour Board, the Waitotara County Council,
the Gonville Town Board, the Mangawhero Road Board,
and the Castlecliff Town Board, as required by the said sec-
tion one hundred and nineteen :

And whereas objections were made to the Governor within
the period of two months prescribed by paragraph (a), (iii),
subsection two, of the said section one hundred and nineteen :

And whereas a Commissioner was appointed, and an
inquiry was held in the manner provided by the said Act in
respect of the said work, and in respect also to the appor-
tionment of the cost of constructing the said work: 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 purpose and in
the manner hereinafter set forth :

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 Wanganui
Borough Council 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 by the Wanganui Borough Council, the
Wanganui County Council, and the Gonville Town Board in
the following proportions—viz., the Wanganui Borough
Council to bear 73 per cent. of such cost, the Wanganui
County Council to bear 25 per cent. of such cost, and the
Gonville Town Board to bear 2 per cent. of such cost re-
spectively.

And I do hereby direct that any contribution hereby
required to be made as aforesaid by the Wanganui County
Council and the Gonville Town Board shall be paid from time
to time, in the proportions hereinbefore prescribed, out of the
funds of the said Council and Board, within a period of thirty
days after a demand in writing made by or on behalf of the
Council of the Borough of Wanganui, and such payments
shall be made from time to time to the Town Clerk, Wanganui,

WHEREAS by section one hundred and nineteen of the
Public Works Act, 1908 (hereinafter termed “the

the local authority of any district desires to construct a bridge,
or to establish a ferry or ford, in any position that will, in
his 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

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 Eltham 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

and hereinafter referred to as “the said work,” and to

work between the said Council and the Kaponga Town
Board :

And whereas it has been agreed by and between the Eltham
County Council and the Kaponga Town Board that the
Kaponga Town Board shall pay two hundred and fifty pounds
and interest towards the cost of construction of the said
work, and that the balance of such cost shall be paid by the
Eltham County Council :

And whereas no objection has been made by the other
local authority which it is proposed should contribute to the
cost of the said work :

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

Now, therefore, I, Arthur William de Brito Savile, Earl
of Liverpool, Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand,
in pursuance and exercise of the powers vested in me by the
said Act, and all other powers and authorities in anywise
enabling me in this behalf, do hereby authorize the Eltham
County Council to execute the said work, and I do hereby
declare that the cost thereof shall be borne by the Eltham
County Council and the Kaponga Town Board in accordance
with the aforesaid agreement; and I do hereby further direct
that any contribution hereby required to be made as aforesaid
by the Kaponga Town Board shall be paid from time to
time, in the proportion hereinbefore prescribed, out of the
funds of the said Board, within a period of one month after
demand in writing made by or on behalf of the Eltham
