Excerpt from Report of the Select Committee on Irrigation Projects, 1919 Your Committee considered in connection with this scheme, certain petitions presented to the Minister of Lands by lower riparian owners protesting against the construction of the proposed works, excepting under certain conditions, assuring to these lower owners a supply of water. Your Committee is satisfied that these petitioners have no reasonable grounds for objecting to the proposed irrigation works and that they are not justified in imposing any special conditions on the Upper Modder River Board.
