No. 100—Petition of Mereana Peka and 4 Others.
Petitioners complain that the trustees in the Maungatapu Block, near Morrinsville, are treating the land as though it was absolutely their own property, and pray that the title may be so amended as to include all the rightful owners.
I am directed to report that the Committee recommends this petition be referred to the Government for consideration.

No. 100.—Pitihana a Mereana Peka mo etahi atu tokowha.
E ki ana nga kai-pitihana, ka Maungatapu Poraka, e tata ana ki Morrinsville, kei te whakahaerea e nga kai-tiaki menemea nei no ratou ake taua whenua, a e inoi ana kia whakatikatikaia te taitara o taua whenua kia uru ai nga tangata whai-take ki roto ki te taitara.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki panei, ki te whakaaro o te Komiti me tuku atu tenei pitihana ki te Kawanatanga kia whiriwhiria.
