[Tbanslation.] No. 501, Sess. 11., 1887. —Pukapuka-inoi a Weeahiko Ateeea me etahi atu 162. E inoi ana te kai-pitihana kia whakamutua te mahi keri i te awa o Wanganui no te mea kihai ratou i whakaae ki taua mahi. Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei: No te mea kua whakamutua te mahi e korerotia nei kahore he kupu a te Komiti. 1 o Hune, 1888.
No. 104.—Petition of Agnes Simeon. Petitionee affirms that the intervention of the Public Trustee in the management of her lands is harassing to her, and that the restrictions imposed on the titles prevent her properties being properly and profitably worked. She prays that she may be allowed to deal with her lands herself. I am directed to report as follows : That, as far as Mrs. Simeon is concerned, she is, in the opinion of the Committee, well able to manage her own affairs. The Committee therefore recommends that the restrictions making her lands inalienable should be removed.
Bth June, 1888. [Tbanslation.] No. 104.—Pukapuka-inoi a Akinihi Himiona. E ki ana te kai pitihana he nui tona raruraru i runga i nga mahi a te Kaitiaki o te Katoa a ko nga here i runga i taua whenua kei te whakaaruraru i tana mahi i tona whenua. E inoi ana ia kia tukuna ki aia te mana whakahaere i tona whenua. Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei: E whakaaro ana te Komiti mo runga ite taha kia Akinihi Himiona e mohio noa atu ana ia ki te whakahaere i ana mahi. No reira ka whakahau te Komiti kia unuhia nga here e here nei i tona whenua. 8 o Hune, 1888.
No. 4.—Petition of N. Heaen and J. Kennedy. Petitionees pray that certain sections of land in the Okutuku Block, which they have leased, may be placed on the same footing as those holding "confirmed" leases, subject to " The West Coast Settlements Eeserves Act, 1887." I am directed to report as follows : That it appears the petitioners are the successors in title of a Mr. Williamson, who held the land under a lease from Natives, which, if it had remained on foot, would now entitle the petitioners to the benefit of " The West Coast Settlement Eeserves Act, 1887," as on the footing of a " confirmed " lease. The change in the position of the title occurred through the Crown acquiring the freehold of the land from the Natives before issue of a Crown grant, thus necessitating a lease from the Crown, which does not give the petitioners the benefit of their neighbours under the Act which was passed last session. The Committee recommend that fresh legislative provision be made as will put the petitioners on the footing as if their lease was a " confirmed" one, subject to "The West Coast Settlement Eeserves Act, 1887."
12th June, 1888. [Tbanslation.] No. 4.—Pukapaka-inoi Haana me Kenebi. E inoi ana nga kai-pitihana mo etahi tekiona whenua i roto i te Okutuku Poraka i riihitia e ratou kia peratia te whakarite o nga tikanga o ta ratou riihi me nga riihi e puritia tuturutia ana e era i raro o te Ture Whakataunga Eahui o te Tai Hauauru. Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei: Ki te titiro atu he kai whakakapi nga kai-pitihana no Weiremuhana i runga i tana riihi i nga Maori, a meheinea i mau tonu i runga i tau riihi kua ahei nga kai-pitihana te pupuri i taua riihi i raro i nga tikanga o te Ture Whakataunga Eahui o te Tai Hauauru, 1887, pera ano me te riihi tuturu, ko te take i rere ke ai nga tikanga o taua riihi he hokonga na te Kawanatanga i taua whenua i nga Maori i mua o te whakaputanga o te Karati, r.o reira ka puta te hiahia kia riihitia taua whenua i te Kawanatanga erangi kahore e tuku i te painga kia ratou pera me era e riihi ana i raro o te Ture i paahitia e te Paremete kua hori ake nei. A e tono ana te Komiti kia hanga he Ture hou kia ahei ai te whakatau i te riihi a te kai-pitihana i runga i to riihi tuturu i raro i nga tikanga o te Ture Whakataunga Eahui, 1887. 12 o Hune, 1888.
