A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by “The District Courts Act, 1858,” it is enacted that it shall be lawful for the Governor, from time to time as he shall think fit, by Proclamation in the New Zealand Gazette, to constitute throughout the colony, or any part thereof, districts within which District Courts shall be respectively held, and such districts to abolish, and the boundaries thereof to define or alter :

And whereas by a Proclamation bearing date the twenty-eighth day of June, one thousand eight hundred and seventy, districts were defined within which District Courts should be held under the said Act and “The District Courts Act Amendment Act, 1865,” and it was thereby declared that the said Courts should be designated by the names of “The District Court of Westland North” and “The District Court of the County of Westland” respectively :

And whereas by another Proclamation bearing date the fifth day of March, one thousand eight hundred and seventy-four, the designation of the said “District Court of the County of Westland” was altered to “The District Court of Westland South :”

And whereas it is expedient to abolish the respective districts so defined as aforesaid, and to constitute the territory comprised therein one district for the purposes of the said “District Courts Act, 1858,” and the Acts amending the same :

Now therefore, I, George Augustus Constantine, Marquis of Normanby, the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the aforesaid power and authority vested in me, do hereby proclaim and declare that, from and after the twelfth day of July instant, the said respective districts of the District Courts of “Westland North” and “Westland South” shall be abolished, and that thenceforth the territory comprised within the boundaries set forth in the Schedule hereto shall be constituted a district within which a District Court shall be held under the said “District Courts Act, 1858,” and the Acts amending the same. And in further pursuance and exercise of the power and authority aforesaid, I do hereby declare that the said Court shall be designated by the name of

“THE DISTRICT COURT OF WESTLAND.”
