NATIVE LANDS COMMISSION.
By Telegraph—Press Association. NAPIER, February 11. The Chief Justice and Mr Ngata, comprising the Native Lands Commission, formally commenced their work here to-day. The first business will be to arrange the lines on which Commission shall set to work. At present it has no data before it, and part of its time here will be occupied in obtaining from the District Land Registrar partiulars of the native blocks in the district for the sitting is not of a public nature, and no evidence will be called. At present the work of the Commission is hampered by the fact that there is no record of the native lands of the colony, and it is said it would take six months to complete such a record.
