An Act to vest a certain Native Reserve in the Public Trustee, and to empower the Native Land Court to ascertain the Beneficial Owners thereof.

Preamble.

WHEREAS in pursuance of a promise made in the year one thousand eight hundred and seventy-three the lands described in the First and Second Schedules hereto, known as the Pariroa Native Reserve, have been reserved under the provisions of “The Land Act, 1892,” for the use, support, and education of aboriginal natives of the Ngatitupito and Ngati-ringi Tribes: And whereas it is expedient that the ownership of the said lands should be vested in the Public Trustee, and that the Native Land Court should be empowered to ascertain the persons beneficially interested in the said lands: And whereas the Natives of the said tribes have agreed that the land described in the Second Schedule hereto shall be vested in the Crown as a reserve for a Native school:

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

1 Short Title.

The Short Title of this Act is “The Pariroa Native Reserve Act, 1901.”

2 Pariroa Native Reserve vested in Public Trustee for beneficiaries.

(1.)

The lands described in the First Schedule hereto, known collectively as the Pariroa Native Reserve, are hereby vested in the Public Trustee as an estate in fee-simple, and the District Land Registrar of Taranaki is hereby authorised and directed to issue a certificate of title to the Public Trustee accordingly. Such certificate shall declare the lands to be absolutely inalienable.

(2.)

The said lands shall be held in trust by the Public Trustee for the exclusive use and occupation of the members of the Ngatitupito and Ngati-ringi Tribes.

Occupation licenses.

(3.)

The Native Land Court is hereby authorised and directed to ascertain who are the beneficiaries of the said lands, and in what shares and localities they are respectively interested; and the Public Trustee may grant occupation licenses to any of the Natives so found to be beneficially interested according to their respective shares or interests.

(4.)

Upon the death of any Native holding an occupation license as aforesaid, the Native Land Court shall, on the application of the Public Trustee, ascertain the person or persons entitled to succeed to the interest of such deceased Native, and the Public Trustee may grant an occupation license to such successor or successors.

(5.)

A copy of this Act, and duplicate or certified copies of all orders made from time to time by the Native Land Court under the provisions of this section, shall be deposited with the said District Land Registrar for safe custody and reference, as provided by section one hundred and twenty-two of “The Land Transfer Act, 1885.”

3 Distribution of accrued rents.

All rents accrued in respect of the said lands prior to the passing of this Act shall, without any further appropriation than this Act, be paid by the Colonial Treasurer to the Public Trustee, who shall distribute the same among the beneficiaries aforesaid in such shares and proportions as the Court directs, or shall pay the same to such person or persons as the beneficiaries may authorise to receive them: Provided that any advances made out of the Consolidated Fund on account of such rents shall be deducted from the amount paid to the Public Trustee.

4 Reserve for Native school.
