No. 55, Sess. II.—Petition of Hone Peti and 6 Others.
Petitioners pray for relief, as certain foreshores at the mouth of the Mangonui River, growing oysters, and belonging to them, have been trespassed upon, and their food taken from them. They do not want oysters, &c., growing on the foreshore of Government lands; they merely wish what they are entitled to to be kept for themselves.
I am directed to report as follows:—
That this Committee recommends the matter to the consideration of the Government, with the request that it may receive immediate attention.
[Translation.]
No. 55, Sess. II.—Pukapuka-inoi a Hone Peti me etahi atu e 6.
E Inoi ana nga kai-pitihana kia whakaputaina tetahi ora ki a ratou no te mea ko nga tahatika i te ngutu awa o Mangonui e tupuria, nei e te tio, no ratou, a e tahaetia ana, na tenei tu mahi ki riro to ratou oranga. Kahore hoki ratou e hiahia ki nga tio e tipu ana i te tahatika o te whenua Kawanatanga, heoi ta ratou i hiahia ai kia waiho a ratou taonga ki a ratou ano.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei:—
E tono ana tenei Komiti kia whiriwhiria tenei mea e Kawanatanga me te tono hoki kia hohoro ta ratou titiro i tenei mea.
