No. 371.—H. Tare Tikao and 4 Others.
Petitioners pray that certain Bills now before the House, which they name, may not be passed, because some clauses of those Bills propose to increase the taxation on Native lands.
I am directed to report as follows: That, as there are Bills now before the House dealing with this matter, the Committee has no recommeindation to make.
[Translation.]
No. 371.—Pukapuka-inoi a H. Tare Tikao me etahi atu, tokowha.
E inoi ana nga kai-pitihana kia kaua o paahitia nga Pire e whakaingoatia ana e ratou a e takoto nei i te aroaro o te Whare. No te mea e mea ana aua Pire kia whakanukuhia ake nga taake i runga i nga whenua Maori.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei: No te mea kei te aroaro o to Whare etahi Pire hei whakahaere i tenei take, kahore he kupu a te Komiti.
