ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House at Wellington, this 14th day of October, 1929.

Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS the Raglan County Council lately proceeded to raise a loan of two thousand five hundred pounds under the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1926 (hereinafter referred to as “the said Act”), for the purpose of widening and metalling the Te Mata to Ruapuke Road in the Aotea Special-rating Area of the County of Raglan :

And whereas the proceedings in connection with the said loan were irregular or defective, in that—

(a) The voting-paper used for the purpose of the poll and the notice published pursuant to section ten of the said Act did not contain a statement that it was not proposed to pay out of the loan the cost of raising the loan or the interest and sinking fund for the first year :

(b) The number of votes to which each ratepayer was entitled was calculated on the basis of capital value in lieu of the rateable value of his rateable property, as required by subsection three of section eleven of the said Act and section thirty-eight of the Counties Act, 1920, the system of voting in the County of Raglan when the poll was taken being on the unimproved value :

And whereas it appears that the ratepayers of the district have not been misled by such irregularities or defects as 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 twenty-two of the said Act, and of all other powers and authorities enabling him in this behalf, 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—

(a) The voting-paper and the notice published pursuant to section ten of the said Act had contained a statement that it was not proposed to pay out of the loan the cost of raising the loan or the interest and sinking fund for the first year :

(b) The number of votes which each ratepayer was entitled to had been calculated on the rateable value of his rateable property :

And that the validity of the proceedings in connection with the said loan or the validity of the security for the said loan shall not be called in question by reason only of the irregularities or defects aforesaid.

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