At the Government House at Wellington, this twenty-seventh day of November, 1919.

His Excellency the Governor-General in Council.

WHEREAS the Horowhenua County Council lately proposed to raise a loan of one thousand six hundred pounds, under the provisions of section sixteen (e) of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913 (hereinafter called “the said Act”), for road-construction :
And whereas the special roll of ratepayers was not deposited for public inspection in accordance with the provisions of the said Act and the regulations thereunder, inasmuch as in the public notification of the deposit of the special roll of ratepayers no reference was made to the period for which the roll was deposited for inspection, or that objections to anything contained in the said roll could be lodged within seven days from the last day of the deposit of the said roll :
And whereas the ratepayers’ consent to the raising of the loan contains no reference to the payment of the cost of raising the loan out of the proceeds thereof :
And whereas the special order authorizing the raising of the loan provides for the payment of the cost of raising the loan out of the proceeds thereof :
And whereas it appears that the ratepayers have not been misled by such irregularities or defects, and it is expedient to validate the said proceedings :
Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor-General of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers and authorities conferred on him by section one hundred and eleven of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913, and acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion, doth hereby declare that the said proceedings shall be valid to all intents and purposes as though the advertisement of the deposit of the said roll and the ratepayers’ consent had been given and taken in the proper manner, and that the proceedings in connection with the said loan shall not be called into question by reason only of the irregularities aforesaid.
