"No Natives to be Landless

"No Natives to be Landless.

"The Government were determined that there should be no landless Natives in the colony, and those in the South Island who had no lands were now to have reserves granted them. If the Waikato Natives without land approached Parliament by petition, like relief might be afforded them. He could not agree to a proposal that there should be no surveys. The title to every acre of Native land in the colony must be ascertained. The Native committees could facilitate this work, and thus save expenses and litigation.
