THE LAND CONFISCATION ACT

‘On Tuesday, 8th May, in the Lower House of the English Parliament, Mr Ashley (a nephew of Lord Shaftesbury) asked the Prime Minister if he knew the Native Land Settlement Act passed by the Government of New Zealand in 1905, and if he had spoken to the King asking him to nullify that law because it contravenes the Treaty of Waitangi which was made between the Crown and the Maori chiefs of New Zealand.
