Reports of the Native Affairs Committee, 1884, No. 2.

No. 264, Sess. II.—Petition of Hone Pihama and Another

No. 264, Sess. II.—Petition of Hone Pihama and Another.

Petitioners pray for an extension of their lease of land, granted to Hone Pihama, for a further term of twenty-one years from the 1st January, 1884.

I am directed to report as follows:—

That the request of Hone Pihama for leave to extend his lease to the partnership, consisting of himself and Mr. Good, to a term of twenty-one years, from the 1st January, 1884, seems reasonable, and the Committee recommends the matter to the consideration of the Government. The Committee further records its opinion that, in the renewal lease, the Government should take care that there be no engagement as to compensation for improvements which would in any way imperil the value of the estate to Hone Pihama when the term has expired.
