Exhibit No. 2, however, already referred to on the preceding page, is a compilation of statistics and historical data relating to the Auckland tramway and motor-omnibus services. As it appears to us that this Exhibit No. 2 contains information that may in the future be useful to those of Your Excellency's Advisers to whom this report will be submitted, we have the honour to forward it to Your Excellency with this report; also we have the honour to forward the Book of Evidence in one volume, and the Notes of Evidence in two volumes. The Notes of Evidence contain a full transcript of the closing addresses by counsel. Accompanying these documents are copies of the Queensland and South Australian legislation to which we have called attention when outlining the constitution of the proposed Transport Board. In witness whereof we have hereunto set our hands, this 11th day of June, 1928. John S. Barton, Chairman. W. G-. T. Goodman, Commissioner. Alfred Edward, Commissioner.
