An Act to amend the Land Valuation Court Act 1948
BE IT ENACTED by the General Assembly of New Zealand in Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:
1 Short Title
This Act may be cited as the Land Valuation Court Amendment Act 1965, and shall be read together with and deemed part of the Land Valuation Court Act 1948 (hereinafter referred to as the principal Act).
2 Deputy Chairman of Committee
Section 19 of the principal Act is hereby amended by repealing subsection (6), and substituting the following subsections:
“(6)
In any case where the Chairman of the Committee is prevented by illness or any other cause from acting in his office, any Magistrate may act in his place, and while so acting shall have all the powers and may perform all the functions of the Chairman.
“(6a)
The fact that any Magistrate acts in accordance with subsection (6) of this section shall be conclusive evidence of his authority to do so; and no acts done by him as Chairman, whether together with any other member of the Committee or not, and no acts done by the Committee while he is acting as such, shall in any proceedings be questioned on the ground that the occasion for his so acting had not arisen or had ceased.”
This Act is administered in the Department of Justice.
