WHEREAS by the Public Works Amendment Act, 1909, it is enacted that if at any time after the issue or making of any Proclamation taking land under the Public Works Act, 1908, and before the payment or award of any compensation in respect of the taking thereof, it is found that the land or any part thereof is not required for the purpose for which it was taken, the Governor-General may, by a subsequent Proclamation gazetted, revoke the former Proclamation, either wholly or so far as he thinks necessary:

And whereas it is found that the additional land taken for the purposes of the Wellington-Napier Railway (Lower Hutt Valley duplication) by a Proclamation made under the Public Works Act, 1908, dated the seventh day of January, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-seven (hereinafter termed “the said Proclamation”), and published in the New Zealand Gazette No. 1, of the thirteenth day of January, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-seven, page 4, is not wholly required for the purpose for which it was taken:

Now, therefore, I, General Sir Charles Fergusson, Baronet, Governor-General of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers vested in me by the Public Works Amendment Act, 1909, and of all other powers enabling me in this behalf, do hereby revoke the said Proclamation.

Given under the hand of His Excellency the Governor-General of the Dominion of New Zealand, and issued under the Seal of that Dominion, this 14th day of September, 1928.
