And whereas it is deemed expedient to give effect to the final scheme of the Local Government Commission:

Now, therefore, pursuant to the Local Government Commission Act 1953, His Excellency the Governor-General, acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council, hereby declares that as on and from the 1st day of October 1955 the Dependent Town District of Onerahi shall be an Independent Town District, and with the like advice and consent hereby also declares that except as otherwise provided herein the Dependent Town District of Onerahi shall be deemed to have been declared to be an Independent Town District pursuant to section 10 of the Municipal Corporations Act 1954.
