No. 378, Session II.—Petition of Wiremu Waitangi and Others.

Petitioners believe that Parliament, after careful consideration, can do everything; and they ask that their lands—Te Ruato and Waiwarawara, near Waikato—should be returned to them. They proceed to give the boundaries.

I am directed to report as follows:—

That the Committee regret that the time at their disposal has not been sufficient to enable them to make such inquiries as would justify them in reporting an opinion on the subject-matter of this petition.
