[No. 253.—Petition of Tamati Ranapiri and 17 Others.]

No. 253.—Petition of Tamati Ranapiri and 17 Others.

Petitioners, who have an interest in the Ohau No. 3 Block, which was awarded by the Native Land Court, were told there was a charge of £150 on the land for surveys. They consider the Government should pay for the surveys. They pray that the amount may be reduced.

I am directed to report as follows: That this petition should be referred to the Government for consideration.

[Translation.]
No. 253.—Pukapuka-inoi a Tamati Ranapiri me etahi atu tekau ma whitu.

E ki ana nga kai-pitihana e whai take ana ratou ki te Ohau No. 3 poraka a i te whakataunga a te Kooti i kiia mai £150 kei runga i taua whenua hei utu mo nga kairuri. E whakaaro ana nga kia-pitihana he mea tika ma te Kawanatanga e utu te ruritanga. A e inoi ana ratou kia whakahokia iho aua moni.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei: Me tuku tenei pitihana ki te Kawanatanga kia whiriwhiria e ratou.
