The office of De Facto Government, its Administration and Justice system is provisional until the Crown Head and Body, the assembly, stand to serve an "annulment" due to "it being inconvenient to them" reports Rev Samual Hinds. 
SELECT COMMITTEE minutes of the House of Lords 3 April 1838 to 31 May 1838 in considering the matter of "Expediency of regulating the settlement of British Subjects of the Islands of New Zealand therein; resolved:
THAT it appears to the Committee, that the Extension of the Colonial Possessions of the Crown is a Question of public Policy which belongs to the Decision of Her Majesty's Government; but that it appears to the Committee, that Support, in whatever Way it may be deemed most expedient to afford it, of the Exertions which have already beneficially effected the rapid Advancement of the religious and social Condition of the Aborigines of New Zealand, affords the best present Hopes of their future Progress in Civilization.
AND the Committee have directed the MINUTES OF EVIDENCE taken before them, together with an INDEX thereto, to be reported to the house.
