XI. Official nominee conncil—how constituted.

When last summoned at Wellington, in June, 1851, it consisted of the Governor-in-chief, Lieutenant-Governor, two colonial secretaries, two attorney generals, two land commissioners, the commander of her Majesty's forces in the southern province, the treasurer and collector of that province, and four private colonists nominated by the Governor, one of whom resigned during the session—altogether eleven salaried officers of Government, and four unofficial nominees. It was this council through which lie has passed the provincial councils bill, which he now seeks to induce her Majesty's Government to adopt.
