WHEREAS the Taranaki County Council, acting under and in pursuance of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913, proposes to raise a loan of four hundred and fifty pounds (£450), authorized by a special order passed on the sixth day of October, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-four, and confirmed on the third day of November, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-four, pursuant to a petition of the ratepayers in the Pennington Road Special-rating District of the County of Taranaki, dated the fifteenth day of January, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-four, for the purpose of forming and metalling the Pennington Road :

And whereas the proceedings are irregular, in that the written consent of the ratepayers was obtained before the special roll of the ratepayers had been deposited for public inspection for a period of at least seven clear days, as required by section seventeen of the said Act :

And whereas all the ratepayers in the Pennington Road Special-rating District have signed the consent to the raising of the loan :

And whereas the special order is irregular, in that the same was passed on the sixth day of October, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-four, and confirmed on the third day of November, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-four, such date of confirmation being sooner than the twenty-eighth day after the date of the special meeting at which such special order was passed, as required by section ninety-nine of the Counties Act, 1920 :

And whereas it appears that the ratepayers have not been misled by the irregularities or defects aforesaid, 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 consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion, doth hereby order and declare that the proceedings taken shall be valid to all intents and purposes as though the special roll of the ratepayers had been deposited for public inspection for a period of at least seven clear days before the written consent of the ratepayers to the raising of the loan had been obtained, and the special order had been confirmed not sooner than twenty-eight days after the same had been passed, and that the validity of the proceedings in connection with the said loan shall not be called into question by reason only of the irregularities or defects aforesaid.

F. D. THOMSON,
Clerk of the Executive Council.
