Warrant apportioning the Annual Payments of Interest and other Charges in respect of a Loan (originally raised by the Waimarino County Council) between the Wanganui and Waimarino County Councils.

CHARLES FERGUSSON, Governor-General.

WHEREAS by section seventy-three of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913, it is, inter alia, provided that where part only of an area over which a special rate is made as security for a loan is merged or included within the district of a local authority other than the local authority that made the rate, then the whole of the liability in respect of the loan shall continue to be a liability of the local authority that raised the loan, but the Governor-General may, upon the written application of that local authority, by Warrant under his hand, direct that any local authority in whose district part of such area has been merged shall pay annually to the first-mentioned local authority during the currency of the loan, on such date as is specified, such amount as he considers a duly proportionate part of the interest and other charges in respect of the loan:

And whereas a part of the area over which a special loan of two thousand pounds for trimming, forming, and metalling the Parapara–Raetihi Road was raised by the Waimarino County Council is now merged into the County of Wanganui:

And whereas it has been mutually agreed between the Waimarino County Council and the Wanganui County Council that the amount of forty-seven pounds five shillings and threepence be paid annually by the Wanganui County Council to the Waimarino County Council as its duly proportionate part of the interest and other charges in respect of the loan:

And whereas written application has been made by the Waimarino County Council to direct accordingly:

Now, therefore, I, General Sir Charles Fergusson, Baronet, Governor-General of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the power and authority conferred on me by section seventy-three of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913, do hereby direct that the Wanganui County Council shall in respect of the above-mentioned loan pay annually to the Waimarino County Council on the second day of February in each and every year during the currency of the said loan, the above-mentioned amount of forty-seven pounds five shillings and threepence as its duly proportionate part of the interest and other charges payable in respect of the said loan.

As witness the hand of His Excellency the Governor-General, this 21st day of April, 1926.
