A PROCLAMATION

WHEREAS by "The Marriage Act Amendment Act, 1858," it is enacted that it shall be lawful for the Governor, at any time by proclamation in the New Zealand Gazette, to divide the Colony of New Zealand for the purposes of the said Act into such and so many districts as he may think fit, and that every such district shall be called by a distinct name, and shall be a Registrar’s district; and it is provided that the Governor may at any time revoke the whole or any part of such proclamation, and issue a new proclamation dividing the Colony or any part of it anew into districts, or increasing the number or altering the boundaries of districts as from time to time he may think requisite:

And whereas by a proclamation duly made and issued bearing date the thirtieth day of November, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-five, the Governor, in pursuance of the said recited power and authority, did constitute two districts for the purposes of the said Act, called the "Dunstan District" and "Wanaka District," the boundaries whereof were therein set forth, which said proclamation came into operation and took effect on the first day of February, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-six:

And whereas it is expedient to revoke so much of the said proclamation as relates to the said districts, and to divide anew the territory formerly comprised within such districts:

Now therefore, I, Sir George Grey, the Governor of the said Colony, in pursuance and exercise of the power and authority vested in me by the said recited Act, do hereby revoke the said proclamation so far as relates to the "Dunstan District" and "Wanaka District," and do proclaim and declare that the territory formerly comprised within such districts shall be and is hereby divided for the purposes of the said Act into two districts.
