NOTICE

FREE NOMINATED IMMIGRATION

(Extract from Order in Council, 15th October, 1873.)

Regulations for the conduct of Immigration to New Zealand, on the Nomination of Immigrants by Persons Resident therein.

1. Any person resident in the Colony, desirous of nominating relatives or friends in Europe for passages to New Zealand, may do so by applying to an Immigration Officer, in the form at foot, copies of which can be obtained at all Immigration and Post Offices.

The persons nominated, if approved by the Immigration Officer and the officers of the Home Agency, will receive free passages to the Colony.

2. Every adult emigrant will be required, before embarkation, to pay, unless specially remitted by the Agent-General, 20s. (and children in proportion), for bedding, blankets, and mess utensils.

3. The cost of conveyance to the port (unless the Agent-General agrees to pay it), and to the residence of their friends after their arrival in the Colony, must be defrayed by the emigrants themselves.

4. All the ships employed in this service will be denur to the provisions of the Passenger Act.

5. It is to be distinctly understood, that notwithstanding the applications are forwarded to the Agent-General by the Immigration Officers, the Agent-General in London may refuse passages where the intending emigrants are in ill-health, or in any way unfit, according to his judgment, to emigrate.

6. The Regulations, issued upon 21st April, 1873, for the payment of bonuses to the nominators upon the arrival of the nominated immigrants, are hereby rescinded; and no certificates for the payment of such bonuses will be given after the date hereof.

To the Immigration Officer,

I have the honor to state that, in my opinion, the persons named below would not be unwilling to emigrate to New Zealand, and would be desirable colonists.

I have, therefore, to advise that such persons should be communicated with, and invited to emigrate to the Colony.

I have, &c.,
