(7) Native Rates in Borough and Town Districts. Seeing that little or 110 saleable produce is derived from Native land situate within borough or town district limits, we can suggest no practicable alternative to the present charging-order system. We, however, are of the opinion that some less expensive and less cumbersome chargmg-order method should be framed, securing to local authorities up to 50 per cent, of the rates annually levied against Native lands, and we recommend accordingly. In conclusion, we desire to express our thanks to the representatives and officers of the various local authorities visited for the manner in which they made desired information available to us. Also we desire to express our thanks to officers of the Native Department for their valued assistance. A file of statements made and papers produced to the Committee is appended. [Not printed.] A. D.
