No. 383, Sess. II., 1887.—Petition of Hakipene Hura and 6 Others.
Petitioners state that a block of land belonging to them called Kurinui, situated at Hauraki, was wrongly awarded to Peneamine Tami during their absence. They pray that a rehearing may take place.
I am directed to report as follows: That it appears from the evidence that, upon an application by the petitioners, a rehearing was offered to be granted in the above case subject to the lodgment of a sum of £20 in security for costs. The petitioners not having complied therewith the Chief Judge had to formally disallow the application. The Committee is of opinion that, provided it be not taken as a precedent, it can see nothing inequitable in Parliament granting a rehearing on the £20 deposit being made even now, and recommends that view to the Government.

No. 383, Sess. II., 1887.—Pukapuka-inoi a Hakipene Hura me etahi atu toko ono.
E Ki ana nga kai-pitihana i whakataua hetia kia Peneamine Tami i a ratou e ngaro atu ana tetahi poraka whenua e karangatia ana ko Kurinui, e takoto ana i Hauraki. E tono ana ratou kia whakawakia tuaruatia.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei: E whakaarohia ana i runga i nga korero i tukuna ki te aroaro o te Komiti i whakaaetia ano te tono whakawa tuarua mehemea i utua nga moni e £20 hei utu mo te whakawakanga, a i runga i te mea kihai i utua mai aua moni heoi whakakahoretia ake te tono a te kai-pitihana. Ko tenei e whakaaro ana te Komiti (ara) ki te mea ekore e waiho hei take tono mo etahi atu keehi, kahore he mea hei arai i te whakaae a te Paremete kia whakawakia tuaruatia ki te mea ia ka utua mai nga moni e £20 inaianei. A e whakaatu ana te Komiti i taua huarahi ki te Kawanatanga.
