Reports of the Native Affairs Committee, 1879, No. 2.

[No. 343, Session II.—Petition of Tareha Moananui and 11 Others (No. 1).]

No. 343, Session II.—Petition of Tareha Moananui and 11 Others (No. 1).

Petitioners pray that certain lands, granted to them before the passing of "The Native Lands Act, 1873," may be subdivided by the Native Land Court; the Judges heretofore having refused to do so.

I am directed to report as follows:—

That the Committee would strongly urge upon the Government the necessity of subdividing all Native land, particularly where the Natives express such a desire.

5th December 1879.

[Translation.]
No. 343, Session II.—Te Pukapuka-inoi a Tareha Moananui me etahi atu 11 (No. 1).

E inoi ana nga kai-pitihana kia roherohea e te Kooti Whenua Maori etahi whenua i karaatitia ki a ratou i mua atu i te mananga o "Te Ture Whenua Maori, 1873." Kihai hoki nga Tiati i mua ake nei i whakaae kia pera.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei:—

E ra e kaha te kupu a te Komiti ki te Kawanatanga kia roherohea nga whenua Maori katoa, ara nga tino whenua ko era e tonoa ana e nga Maori.
