WHEREAS the Heathcote County Council, acting under and in pursuance of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913, lately proposed to raise loans of twelve thousand pounds and sixteen thousand pounds for the purposes of road formation in the Avonside Riding, and roading, sewerage, draining, and channelling in the Cashmere Riding Area:

And whereas the notices of the proposal under section nine were published partly in one newspaper and partly in another, instead of wholly in one newspaper as required by the section: And whereas a similar irregularity occurred with regard to the notice of the date of the poll under section ten (two): And whereas the first publication of the date of the poll was not made not less than fourteen days before the said date: And whereas the poll was taken within one week after the day of the last publication of the notice mentioned in section nine, instead of not less than one week after:

And whereas it appears that the ratepayers have not been misled by the said irregularities, and it is expedient to validate the same:

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 order and declare that the steps taken to raise the loans of twelve thousand pounds and sixteen thousand pounds shall be valid to all intents and purposes as though the notices of the proposal under section nine, and the notices of the date of the poll under section ten (two) had been properly given and the poll had been taken not less than one week after the day of the last publication of the notice mentioned in section nine of the Act, and that the validity of the proceedings in connection with the said loans shall not be called into question by reason only of the irregularities aforesaid.

And whereas it appears that the ratepayers have not been misled by such irregularity or defect, and it is expedient to validate the same:
