LICENSING COMMITTEES.
POSITION OF OHnnSMURI.
DEFUNCT AFTER NEXT MARCH. (By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.) WAIHI, this day. In reply to an inquiry by the Mayor, through Mr. A. M. Samuel, M.P., about the status of the Ohinemuri and Thames licensing committees after the general election in November, the Minister of Justice states that the recent alteration of boundaries will make no difference in the election for the Thames Licensing Committee, which will be held in the ordinary course in March next year, the new district automatically becoming the electorate for which tht committee is chosen. The committee will be elected by the whole Thames district, which now includes Ohinemuri, there being no provision in the Act for proportionate representation in the various principal districts of the electorate, such as Waihl, Thames and Paeroa. The position, therefore, is that the Ohinemuri Licensing Committee will function until the election in March and then become defunct.
