WHEREAS the Upper Hutt Borough Council lately proceeded to raise a loan of sixteen thousand pounds, under the provisions of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913 (hereinafter referred to as “the said Act”), for the purpose of establishing a high-pressure water-supply in the West Ward of the Borough of Upper Hutt:

And whereas the proceedings in connection with the said loan were irregular or defective, in that notification of the deposit of the special roll was not inserted in a newspaper circulating in the district, as required by section three of the said Act:

And whereas it appears that the ratepayers of the district have not been misled by such irregularity or defect, and it is expedient to validate the same:

And whereas by section one hundred and twenty-six of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1926, the said Act is repealed and it is enacted that all matters and proceedings commenced under the said Act and pending or in progress on the commencement of the reciting Act may be continued, completed, and enforced under the reciting Act:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor-General of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance of the powers conferred on him by section one hundred and twenty-two of the reciting Act, and acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion, doth hereby order and declare that the proceedings in connection with the said loan shall be valid to all intents and purposes as though notification of the deposit of the special roll had been published as required by the said Act, and that the validity of the proceedings in connection with the said loan or of the security for the said loan shall not be called in question by reason only of the irregularity or defect aforesaid.

Clerk of the Executive Council.
