Reports of the Native Affairs Committee, 1877.

[Report on Petition of Meiha Keepa te Rangihiwinui and Others]

Report on Petition of Meiha Keepa te Rangihiwinui and Others.

Petitioners pray that the Maori Real Estate Management Bill and the Native Lands Act Amendment Bill be not proceeded with during the present session, so that the Maoris may have further opportunities of considering the effect those Bills are likely to have on the Native race.

I am directed to report as follows:—

That, the Bills in question having been disposed of by the House, the Committee do not think it necessary to express an opinion on the subject.

John Bryce,
Chairman.

5th December, 1877.

[Translation.]
Ko te kupu a te Komiti mo runga i te Pukapuka-inoi a Metha Keepa te Rangihiwinui me etahi atu.

Ko nga kai-inoi e mea ana ko te Pire whakahaere i nga Whenua Maori Tuturu, me te Pire Whakatikatika i te Ture mo nga Whenua Maori me kaua e whakaotia i tenei nohoanga o te Paremete, kia ahei ai nga Maori te whiriwhiri i te mahi a aua ture mo te Iwi Maori.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei atu ki te Whare:—

I te mea kua oti aua Pire i te Whare, e mahara ana te Komiti kahore he take e whakapuaki kupu ai ratou.

John Bryce,
Tumuaki.
