The Servicemen's Settlement and Land Sales Act, 1943.—Notice Declaring Land and an Interest in Land Taken for the Settlement of a Discharged Serviceman

WHEREAS an application has been made for the consent of the Land Valuation Court to a transaction which relates to the lands described in the First and Second Schedules hereto, and to which Part III of the Servicemen's Settlement and Land Sales Act, 1943, as extended by the provisions of section 4 of the Servicemen's Settlement and Land Sales Amendment Act, 1948, applies:

And whereas the Land Valuation Committee to which the said application has been referred is of opinion that the lands to which the said application relates are farm lands suitable or adaptable for the settlement of a discharged serviceman:

And whereas the said Committee, not being satisfied that the Crown had decided not to acquire or arrange for the acquisition of the land described in the said First Schedule and the interest of the licensee in the land described in the said Second Schedule, and being satisfied that the proposed transferee or assignee under the said transaction is not a child of the transferor who intends to reside personally on the land and to farm the same exclusively for his own use and benefit, did, on the 3rd day of March, 1948, make an order determining the basic value of the land described in the said First Schedule and determining the value of the interest of the licensee in the land described in the said Second Schedule, and no appeal from the said order was made within the time prescribed by the said Act, or within any further time allowed by the Court:

And whereas the said land is not the land of any serviceman who is for the time being serving outside New Zealand in any of His Majesty's Forces or in any British ship.

Now, therefore, the Minister of Lands, acting in pursuance of section 51 of the said Act, doth hereby declare that the land described in the said First Schedule and the interest of the licensee in the land described in the said Second Schedule are hereby taken for the settlement of a discharged serviceman, and hereby specifies the 3rd day of May, 1949, as the date on which the land described in the said First Schedule and the interest of the licensee in the land described in the said Second Schedule shall be deemed to be vested in His Majesty the King.
