Be it therefore enacted as follows:

(1) Upon application made to it in that behalf by the Minister of Maori Affairs, the court is hereby empowered and directed to make an order setting apart any portion of the land referred to in subsection (4) as a Maori reservation for the common use of the Maoris resident in and around Pukekohe as a meeting place, building site, recreation ground, or in any other manner that may be for their common use or benefit:

(3) The provisions of section 5 of the Maori Purposes Act 1937 shall apply to the said land in as full and effectual a manner as if the said land had been set apart as a Maori reservation by an Order in Council under that section, and the court is hereby declared to have, in respect of the said land, all the powers conferred upon it by the said section 5.
