HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL IN COUNCIL

WHEREAS the Banks Peninsula Electric-power Board lately proceeded by way of special order to raise a loan of five thousand pounds (£5,000), to be known as Development Loan, 1945 (hereinafter called the said loan):

And whereas the proceedings in connection with the said loan were irregular or defective in that public notice of the resolution to make the special order authorizing the raising of the loan, although given four times, was not given once in each of the four weeks immediately preceding the day on which the meeting was held for the purpose of confirming that resolution, as required by paragraph (c) of subsection one of section forty-five of the Electric-power Boards Act, 1925:

And whereas it appears that the ratepayers of the district have not been misled by such irregularity 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 Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1926, 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 the said public notice had been correctly given, 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 aforesaid.

W. O. HARVEY, Clerk of the Executive Council.
