After recording the formation of the fourth and fifth drainage board on the Hauraki Plains the annual report of the Lands Drainage Department observes that the area which is still liable for rates under the rating clauses of the Hauraki Plains Act, 1926, will be still further reduced during 1930, when the Elstow Drainage Board will take over the control and maintenance of works constructed by the department in the greater part cf the Awaiti basin. Generally speaking, the area liable for rates is the lower valued portion of the Plains, and the values of this portion will be reduced considerably when the county is revalued in the immediate future.
