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

[No. 108, Session II.—Petition of Paora Parau and Others.]

No. 108, Session II.—Petition of Paora Parau and Others.

Petitioners pray that a portion of the Mutunga Block, consisting of 540 acres, may be returned to them, as the number of acres agreed upon to be given up to the Government, as confiscated land, was 5,000 acres, whereas the block contains 5,540 acres, as shown by the survey.

I am directed to report as follows:—

That the Committee regret that the time at their disposal has not been sufficient to enable them to complete the inquiry into this petition.

11th December 1879.

[Translation.]
No. 108, Session II.—Te Pukapuka-inoi a Paora Parau me etahi atu.

E ki ana nga kai-pitihana ko tetahi wahi o te poraka o te Muhunga e 540 eka kia whakahokia ki a ratou no te mea ko nga eka i tukua atu ki te Kawanatanga hei whenua raupatu e 5,000 eka a ko nga eka inaianei o te poraka i runga i te ruritanga e 5,540.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei:—

E pouri ana te Komiti mo te poto o te takiwa i a ratou e oti ai te tirotirohanga i nga putake o roto i tenei pitihana.
