HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL IN COUNCIL
WHEREAS by Order in Council made on the seventh day of
November, one thousand nine hundred and forty-five
(hereinafter called the said Order in Council), and subject to the
determinations as to borrowing and repayment therein set out,
consent was given to the raising in New Zealand by the Ashburton

loan of fifteen thousand two hundred and fifty pounds (£15,250), to
be known as 'Waterworks and Drainage Loan, No. 2, 1945'
(hereinafter called the said loan):
And whereas by Order in Council made on the thirtieth day
of January, one thousand nine hundred and forty-six, the determina-
tions aforesaid were varied:
And whereas the said loan has not yet been raised and it is
expedient to extend the term, as specified in clause seven of the
said Order in Council, within which the said loan or any portion
thereof may be raised:
Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor-General of the
Dominion of New Zealand, acting by and with the advice and
consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion, and in
pursuance and exercise of the powers and authorities conferred on
him by section eleven of the Local Government Loans Board Act,
1926, as set out in section twenty-nine of the Finance Act, 1932
(No. 2), and of all other powers and authorities enabling him in
this behalf, doth hereby vary the determinations aforesaid in respect
of the said loan by prescribing that no moneys shall be borrowed
under the consent given by the said Order in Council after the

ORDER IN COUNCIL
At the Government House at Wellington, this 15th day of

Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL IN COUNCIL
WHEREAS the Mackenzie County Council lately proceeded by
way of special order to raise a loan of one thousand eight
hundred pounds (£1,800), by a loan to be known as 'Aorangi Hall
Loan, 1946,' for the purpose of purchasing the Aorangi Hall in
Fairlie Township for use as a public hall:
And whereas the proceedings in connection with the said loan
were irregular or defective in that steps were taken in connection
with the making of the special order before the consent of the
Governor-General in Council had been given to the raising of the
said loan in terms of section ten of the Local Government Loans
Board Act, 1926:
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 Local Bodies' Loans Act, 1926, 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
the steps taken in connection with the making of the special order
had been taken after the consent of the Governor-General in Council
had been given to the raising of the said loan as aforesaid, and that
the validity of the security for the said loan shall not be called in
question by reason only of the irregularity or defect aforesaid.

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