Reports of the Native Affairs Committee, 1880.

No. 300 of 1880.—Petition of Manihera Matangi and 43 Others

No. 300 of 1880.—Petition of Manihera Matangi and 43 Others.

Petitioners examine in detail and criticise very unfavourably the Native Land Sales Bill, 1880, and pray that it may not be passed. They also state that "they disapprove of the district officers, who bring all the trouble in this Island."

I am directed to report as follows:—

That the petition refers to matters of public policy now under the consideration of Parliament, and the Committee has therefore no recommendation to make.

11th August, 1880.
