A recent decision by the Chief Justice, in the case of Harvey v. Summerlield that the aleinations contemplated by section 209, Native Land Act (dealing with more than ten owners in a block), are dealings by the whole of the owners is taken to mean that Native Land Boards cannot grant Drecedent consent until all signatures are secured.
