Preamble.

WHEREAS by section seven of the Wanganui Church Acre Amendment Act, 1917, provision is made for the application of the rents arising from time to time from any leases granted in pursuance of the powers conferred by the Wanganui Church Acre Act, 1910, and by the Wanganui Church Acre Amendment Act, 1917, and of the rents theretofore received in respect of leases granted under the powers conferred by the Wanganui Church Acre Act, 1910: And whereas doubts have arisen as to the order and manner in which such rents are intended to be applied under the provisions of the said section seven of the said Wanganui Church Acre Amendment Act, 1917, and it is desirable to remove such doubts: And whereas the General Synod of the Church of the Province of New Zealand, commonly called “The Church of England” (in the principal Act and this Act referred to as the General Synod), at its session held in the month of February, nineteen hundred and thirty-one, directed the Wellington Diocesan Board of Trustees to apply for an Act of Parliament giving the said Board power to apply the said rents in the order and manner set out in this Act:

Be it therefore enacted by the General Assembly of New Zealand in Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:—
