ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government Buildings at Wellington, this 18th day of February, 1936.

Present :

THE HON. M. J. SAVAGE PRESIDING IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS the Wairoa Borough Council is proceeding under the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1926 (hereinafter referred to as “the said Act”), to raise certain loans for the following purposes, namely :—

1. Increasing the storage capacity of the borough water-supply system.
2. Erecting buildings for rest-room, Plunket Room, health clinics, &c., for women.
3. Preparing and sealing approximately seven miles of streets in the borough.

And whereas the proceedings in connection with the said loans were irregular and defective in that the notice published pursuant to the requirements of section ten of the said Act did not set forth the provisions for the repayment of the loans—namely, that each of the aforesaid loans numbered (1) and (2) should be repaid within a period of twenty-five years, and that the aforesaid loan numbered (3) should be repaid within a period of ten years :

And whereas it appears that the ratepayers of the district have not been misled by such irregularity or defect 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 that 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 loans shall be valid to all intents and purposes as though the term of each of the said loans had been stated in the aforesaid notice, and that the validity of the proceedings in connection with each of the said loans, or the validity of the security for any of the said loans, shall not be called in question by reason only of the irregularity or defect aforesaid.
