NATIVE RATE ARREARS
SETTLEMENT AT OTOROHANGA (From Our Own Correspondent.) OTOROHANGA, Thursday. When the Otorohanga County Council met yesterday, Mr. P. H. Jones, clerk to the Native Lands Consolidation Committee, gave an explanation of the committee’s activities. The committee had offered the council £2,000 in full settlement of all rates outstanding up to 1930 and a further sum of £230 as a contribution toward the cost of charging orders. Mr. Jones said the idea of making a settlement up to 1930 was to give time to examine and adjust a very complicated position. The money offered had not come from the Government as a grant, but from the Native Settlement account. The council decided to accept the after in lull settlement to 1930.
