Letters sent to the Commissioners of Claims appointed under 5 Will. IV no.21, entitled "An Act for appointing and empowering Commissioners to examine and report upon Claims to Grants of Land, under the Great Seal of the Colony of New South Wales". It was actually an Act renewing with certain alterations and amendments 4 Will. IV no.9 (see NRS 956). However, the original (4 Will. IV no.9) was only in force for two years. The letters relate to applications for deeds, reports of the Commissioners and discussion of policy and points of law, claims to grants of land referred to the Commissioners, and cases where fees were approved.
