No. 98.—Petition of Hori Herehere and 4 Others.

Petitioners pray for a rehearing in connection with Tahoraiti No. 3.

I am directed to report that the Committee recommends that this petition be referred to the Government for the purpose of having an inquiry held into the matter by some person other than an officer or officers of the Native Land Court, as the petitioners appear to have suffered a wrong through an omission on the part of their agent.
