I. That the present northern boundary of the existing Rahotu Riding of the Egmont County be altered by the severance from the present Rahotu Riding of the part thereof being all that area in the Taranaki Land District comprised within the boundaries as follows: Commencing at a point on the sea-coast at the north-west corner of Section 26, Block IV, Cape Survey District; thence easterly along the northern boundary of the said Section 26 to the western side of the Coast Road; thence easterly across the Coast Road to a point in the centre of the Puniho Road at its junction with the Coast Road; thence easterly along the centre of the Puniho Road to its junction with the Forest Reserve boundary; thence easterly along a straight line to the summit of Mount Egmont; thence westerly in a straight line to the source of the Kapoaiaia Stream in the Forest Reserve; thence in a westerly direction along the centre of the said Kapoaiaia Stream to the sea-coast; thence in a northerly direction along the sea-coast to the point of commencement at the north-west corner of Section 26, Block IV, Cape Survey District aforesaid. And that such severed area is hereby constituted a new riding of the Egmont County, and shall be named the “Newall Riding.”

II. That the present southern boundary of the existing Rahotu Riding of the Egmont County be altered by the severance from the existing Rahotu Riding of that part thereof lying to the southward of the Oao-iti Stream, commencing on the sea-coast at a point in the centre of the mouth of the Oao-iti Stream; thence in a north-easterly direction along the centre of the said Oao-iti Stream to its source in the Forest Reserve; and thence north-easterly in a straight line to the summit of Mount Egmont; which said part so severed from the existing Rahotu Riding shall be added to the existing Opua Riding of the Egmont County, whereupon the boundaries of the said Opua Riding shall be as follows: All that area in the Land District of Taranaki commencing on the sea-coast at a point in the centre of the mouth of the Oao-iti Stream; thence in a north-easterly direction along the centre of the said Oao-iti Stream to its source in the Forest Reserve; and thence north-easterly in a straight line to the summit of Mount Egmont; thence south-westerly in a straight line to the source of the Taungatara Stream in the Forest Reserve; thence generally in a south-westerly direction along the centre of the said Taungatara Stream to the sea-coast; and thence in a northerly direction along the sea-coast to the point of commencement, being the centre of the mouth of the Oao-iti Stream. And that the riding as altered shall retain the name of the “Opua Riding.”

III. That thereupon the boundaries of the remainder of the Rahotu Riding shall be as follows: All that area in the Land District of Taranaki commencing on the sea-coast at a point in the centre of the mouth of the Kapoaiaia Stream; thence easterly along the centre of the said Kapoaiaia Stream to its source in the Forest Reserve; thence easterly in a straight line to the summit of Mount Egmont; thence south-westerly in a straight line to the source of the Oao-iti Stream in the Forest Reserve; thence still in a south-westerly direction along the centre of the said Oao-iti Stream to the sea-coast; thence in a northerly direction along the sea-coast to the point of commencement, being the centre of the mouth of the Kapoaiaia Stream. And that the riding shall retain the name of the “Rahotu Riding.”

I hereby certify that the foregoing special order was passed at a special meeting of the Egmont County Council, properly convened, held on the 18th day of January, 1923, and subsequently confirmed at a special meeting of the said Council, properly convened, on the 19th day of February, 1923.
