Regulations for Supplementing Local Road Boards, &c.—The following Regulations for supplementing Rates raised by Local Road Boards and Works proposed to be carried out by Private Subscriptions, having been approved by the General Road Board, are now published for general information:—

1. Any Local Board desirous of availing itself of the
   money or subsidy voted by the Provincial Council of
   the Province of Otago, must give notice in form attached to that effect to the Chairman of the General
   Road Board, and state approximately the amount it is
   estimated will be raised.

2. The money or subsidy allowed to any such Local
   Road Board, will be at the rate of two pounds for
   every one pound raised by a rate not exceeding one
   shilling in the pound, or one shilling an acre.

3. Upon the Treasurer of any Local Board, or other
   authorised person, paying from time to time to the
   Provincial Treasury of Otago the amounts raised by
   rates by such Board, credit will be given for the same,
   together with two pounds additional for every one
   pound so paid in.

Note.—It is understood that the amount thus credited
will be applied solely to the payment of expenditure
which may be incurred on works undertaken by the
Local Board.

4. Payments will be made according to the progress
   of the Works, upon vouchers signed by two Local
   Inspectors (who must have been approved by the General
   Road Board) and the Treasurer of the Local Board,
   and counter-signed by the Inspector of Works, to be
   appointed by the Government.

5. Every payment into the said Treasury by a Local
   Board must be of a sum not less than twenty (20)
   pounds, and be also accompanied by a statutory declaration that the money was raised by rates collected for
   the year under which such subsidy is claimed.

6. The Government shall have the right to examine
   all books, accounts, and other documents, of asking for
   verified copies or statements of the same, of inspecting
   works, and of approving or disapproving of the same,
   but there will be no desire to interfere with the exercise
   of local control except when really necessary.

7. In all cases, returns of expenditure and of the
   works executed must be furnished to the said Government,
   immediately after the completion of such works,
   or sooner, from time to time as the said Government
   may require.

   an application in form annexed must be submitted to
   the Superintendent together with an approximate estimate
   of the proposed work, and the advantages likely to
   arise therefrom.

9. When the road or roads, bridge or bridges, or
   other works proposed is or are situated within a Road
   District, such statement must be forwarded to the said
   Superintendent through the Local Board of such
   district.

IMMIGRATION TO OTAGO—Urgent representations

having been made to the Provincial Government
as to the scarcity of agricultural labourers, notice
is hereby given to those employers who, through their
friends and connections in the mother country, can hire
suitable labourers, that the Government is prepared to
issue passage orders from Glasgow to the Province on
payment of £10 per statute adult.

The same facilities will also be given to others than
agricultural employers who may wish to engage their
own workpeople in the home country; the only stipulation which the Government makes in either case is,
that public aid shall be strictly confined to importation
of bona fide labour suitable to the actual requirements
of the Province.
