WHEREAS by "The Public Health Act 1872," it is, among other things, enacted that the Governor shall from time to time appoint a convenient place or places, in each district constituted as therein mentioned, for the performance of vaccination therein, and shall take the most effectual means for giving, from time to time, to all persons resident within such district, due notice of the days and hours at which a public vaccinator will attend at such place to vaccinate all persons not already successfully vaccinated, who may then appear there, and also of the days and hours at which such public vaccinator will attend at such place to inspect the progress of such vaccination in persons so vaccinated: And whereas certain districts have been appointed under the said Act for the purpose of affording facilities for vaccination therein, and certain persons have been appointed public vaccinators in such districts, and it is expedient that places should be appointed for the performance of vaccination, and that notice of the days and hours at which the public vaccinator will attend for the purposes aforesaid should be given:—

Now therefore I, Sir James Fergusson, the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers vested in me by the hereinbefore in part recited Act, do hereby appoint the several places mentioned in the second column of the Schedule hereto as and to be places at which public vaccinators appointed for the respective districts mentioned in the first column of the said Schedule shall attend for the performance of vaccination as required by the said Act; and I do hereby give notice that each such public vaccinator will attend at the respective places aforesaid, for the purpose of performing such vaccination, on the days and at the hours set forth in the third column of the said Schedule opposite the name of each such place; and further, that at each such place as last aforesaid, the public vaccinator will attend for the purpose of inspecting the progress of such vaccination in the persons so vaccinated on the days and at the hours respectively set forth in the fourth column of the said Schedule opposite the name of each such place.

Given under the hand of His Excellency the Right Honourable Sir James Fergusson, Baronet, a Member of Her Majesty’s Most Honourable Privy Council, Governor and Commander-in-Chief in and over Her Majesty’s Colony of New Zealand and its Dependencies, and Vice-Admiral of the same, at Christchurch; and issued this eleventh day of December, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and seventy-three.
