HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL IN COUNCIL
Whereas the Matamata Borough Council (hereinafter referred to as 'the Council') has commenced proceedings to raise a loan of $32,000 to be known as the Waterworks No. 2 Loan 1967 ('the loan'); and whereas, pursuant to section 3 of the Local Authorities Loans Act 1956 (as amended by section 3 (1) of the Local Authorities Loans Amendment Act 1967), the Council has obtained consent to raise the loan: and whereas the proceedings in connection with the loan were irregular or defective in that, contrary to regulation 3 (1) of the Local Authorities Loans Regulations 1957, there was an interval of less than 14 days between the date on which the Council gave public notice of its intention to consider a motion to make an application for the sanction of the Local Authorities Loans Board to raise the loan and the date on which the Council considered the motion aforesaid: and whereas it appears that the ratepayers of the district have not been misled by the irregularity or defect aforesaid and it is expedient to validate the same;
