E tono ana nga kai-pitihana kia rohe-potaetia to ratou takiwa a kia whakaturia etahi tangata tika kia tekau-ma-rua hei whakahaere i nga ture a te Kuini, a hei whakahaere hoki i etahi ture mo te hori i a ratou poaka, hipi, kau, hoiho, ko te whakamaramatanga o a ratou korero kei roto i ta ratou pitihana.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei:—
Kaore he kupu a te Komiti mo te inoi o te pitihana.
