Reports of the Native Affairs Committee, 1882.

No. 38 of 1882.—Petition of Te Whiu te Kaitoa and 2 Others

No. 38 of 1882.—Petition of Te Whiu te Kaitoa and 2 Others.

Petitioners state that the lands of Whakatahataha were wrongfully divided, No. 1 to the Ngatikuri, and No. 2 to the Ngatikorokoro; and that the Native Land Court can no longer act in the matter. They pray that a Bill may be passed allowing a rehearing of their case.

I am directed to report as follows:—

That, from the report of Judge Monro upon this case and minute thereon by Chief Judge Fenton, it seems to the Committee unnecessary to pursue the matter further.

14th August, 1882.
