Reports of the Native Affairs Committee, 1897.

[No. 261.—Wi Pere and 5 Others.]

page 6

No. 261.—Wi Pere and 5 Others.

Petitioners complain that, owing to the state of the law, they are unable to deal with their lands in such manner as will enable them to extricate themselves from severe monetary difficulties. They pray for relief.

I am directed to report that the Committee strongly urges the Government to introduce legislation this session to give the petitioners the relief they pray for.

2nd December, 1897.

[Translation.]
No. 261.—Pitihana a Wi Pere me etahi atu toko rima.

E ki ana nga kai-pitihana na te ahua o te ture i kore ai ratou e ahei ki te whakahaere i o ratou whenua i runga i nga raruraru moni e pehi kino nei i a ratou. E inoi ana ratou kia whakaorangia ratou.

Eua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei, e tino kaha ana te aki atu a te Komiti i tana kupu ki te Kawanatanga kia mahia he ture i tenei tuunga o te Paremete hei hoatu ki nga kai-pitihana i te ora e inoitia nei e ratou.
