No. 305.—Petition of Te Whakapopo and 68 Others.
Petitioners pray that moneys which have accumulated from rents in connection with the Native hostelry site at Onehunga be expended in providing suitable lodging-house for Maoris visiting that town, and after such provision has been made any balance unexpended be handed over to them.
I am directed to report that the Committee recommends that this petition be referred to the Government, with a view to provision being made for accommodation for Maoris visiting Onehunga.
