No. 138, 1890.—Petition of Karepa Tengi and 12 Others.

Petitioners pray that an Act may be passed enabling their names to be included in the list of owners to an island called Rangitoto, situated on the west of the South Island.

I have the honour to report as follows: That the opinion of the Committee is that the petition be referred to the Government, and that the petitioner should be advised to make application under section 13 of "The Native Land Court Acts Amendment Act, 1889," so that their names could be included if found that they had been inadvertently omitted.
