No. 167.—Petition of Paora Parau.
Petitioner objects to pay taxes, rates, and duties which have been imposed upon him by the Government as he is the owner of the soil.
I am directed to report as follows: That, as the petition interferes with the policy of the Government the Committee has no recommendation to make.

No. 167.—Pukapuka-inoi a Paora Parau.
E whakahe ana te kai-pitihana ki te utu i nga taaki me nga reeiti me nga tiuti kua whakaekea nei ki runga i aia e te Kawanatanga no te mea ko ia te tangata whai take ki taua whenua.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei: No te mea e whakararuraru ana te pitihana i nga mahi a te Kawanatanga. Kahore he kupu a te Komiti.
