Validating Proceedings in Connection with the Ashburton Borough Council's Loans of £8,200, £15,250, and £4,250

B. C. FREYBERG, Governor-General
ORDER IN COUNCIL
At the Government House at Wellington, this 21st day of August, 1946
Present:
His Excellency the Governor-General in Council

WHEREAS the Ashburton Borough Council, pursuant to the terms of requisitions issued under section twenty-two of the Health Act, 1920, proceeded by way of special orders under paragraph (d) of section seventeen of the Local Bodies' Loans Act, 1926 (hereinafter called the said Act), to raise two loans of eight thousand two hundred pounds (£8,200) and fifteen thousand two hundred and fifty pounds (£15,250) each, to be known as Waterworks and Drainage Loan, 1945, and Waterworks and Drainage Loan, No. 2, 1945, respectively, for the purpose of providing certain drainage works, sewerage works, and waterworks for the Allenton area of the borough, and also a loan of four thousand two hundred and fifty pounds (£4,250), to be known as Drainage Loan, 1946, for the purpose of improving the drainage facilities for the borough:

And whereas the proceedings in connection with the said loans were irregular, in that although public notices of the deposit of the special rolls for public inspection were given they were not given for the specified requisite times:

And whereas the proceedings in connection with the said loan of four thousand two hundred and fifty pounds (£4,250) were irregular, in that the date on which the Governor-General consented to the raising of the loan was shown in the special order as the seventeenth day of April, one thousand nine hundred and forty-six, instead of the tenth day of April, one thousand nine hundred and forty-six:

And whereas it appears that the ratepayers of the district have not been misled by such irregularities 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 public notices of the deposit of the special rolls for public inspection were given for the specified requisite times, and the proceedings in connection with the loan of four thousand two hundred and fifty pounds (£4,250) shall be valid to all intents and purposes as though the date of the Governor-General's consent had been shown correctly in the special order, and that the validity of the proceedings in connection with the said loans or the security for the said loans shall not be called in question by reason only of the irregularities aforesaid.

W. O. HARVEY, Clerk of the Executive Council.
(T. 49/113.)
