however, whether the rate of interest or the term of years of
the loan was or was not specified or determined, and such
money or any part thereof has not been borrowed, the local
authority may, with the precedent consent of the Minister of
Finance, borrow such money, or such amount thereof as has
not been borrowed, at such rate of interest, or for such term
not less than ten years, as may be prescribed by the Governor-
General by Order in Council:
And whereas the Hamilton Borough Council has been
authorized to borrow the sum of thirty-three thousand
pounds for electricity and waterworks, and is now desirous
of borrowing an additional two thousand six hundred pounds
being ten per cent. of the electricity portion of the loan
(twenty-six thousand pounds) under the authority of section
eighteen of the Local Bodies' Loans Act, 1913:
And whereas the Minister of Finance has given his precedent
consent as required by the above-recited section eleven, and
it is desired that the rate of interest at which the said two
thousand six hundred pounds may be borrowed be increased
to not exceeding six and a half per centum per annum:
Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor-General of
the Dominion of New Zealand, acting by and with the advice
and consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion,
doth hereby prescribe that the rate of interest that may be
paid by the Hamilton Borough Council in respect of the loan
of two thousand six hundred pounds shall be a rate not ex-
ceeding six and a half per centum per annum, and the said
Hamilton Borough Council is hereby authorized to borrow
the said sum of two thousand six hundred pounds accord-
ingly.
