SCHEDULE.

1. The said regulations are hereby amended by adding to
   paragraph (a) of clause 23 thereof the following proviso :—
   Provided that where a discharged soldier is the registered
   owner in fee-simple of such land, and the Minister is satisfied
   that such person has obtained such land directly as a beneficiary under a deed of gift without any consideration in money or money’s worth, the Minister may, if in his opinion special circumstances render such an amount inadequate,
   authorize an additional advance not exceeding £250.
2. The said regulations are hereby amended by inserting
   the following new clause after clause 20A :—
   20B. In any case where upon the acquisition of any land for the settlement of discharged soldiers the Minister has considered it expedient that farming operations on such land should be carried on by the Commissioner of Crown Lands until such time as is deemed opportune for placing the persons to whom the subdivisions may have been allotted in possession of such allotments, and if the Minister is satisfied that the amount that may be advanced to any such person hereunder is inadequate having regard to the liabilities which it may be arranged that such person shall accept as mortgagor, he may, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these regulations, make advances to any such person in the manner following :—
   (a.) On current account mortgage up to an amount not exceeding the amount of the liabilities accepted by the mortgagor with respect to stock and chattels.
   (b.) On mortgage up to an amount equal to the value of the improvements effected by the mortgagor. Repayment under such mortgage shall be by half-yearly instalments of principal and interest at the rate of five per centum per annum extending over a period not exceeding thirty-six years and a half:
   Provided that in no case shall the amounts advanced under either paragraph (a) or (b), or both paragraphs, exceed such amount or amounts as the Minister, having regard to the special circumstances of each case and to the liabilities to be accepted by the mortgagor, decides to be adequate.

   Clerk of the Executive Council.
