Conditions for granting Concessions to Euro- 

 pean Portuguese. 



Art. 106. — In the case of concessions permitted 

 by Article 58 the procedure laid down in Article 83 

 and succeeding articles is to be followed up to the 

 completion of the survey of the ground applied 

 for, the only modification of this mode of proce- 

 dure being that, in place of the requisite receipt 

 or warrant of deposit in respect of the initial 

 payment, a document is to be put in testifying 

 to applicant being a European Portuguese and 

 having resided in any Portuguese oversea posses- 

 sion for a period of more than ten years : there- 

 after the following shall be observed : — 



(1) If the concession comes within his exclu- 

 sive jurisdiction, the Governor-General 

 shall, on the relative documents being 

 presented to him, after the completion of 

 the survey work, during the carrying out 

 of which no complaints entitled to 

 consideration have been lodged and 

 registered, and he deeming that the 

 application is in terms of being granted, 

 award the land and order that the 

 respective concession title be issued sub- 

 ject to the insertion of the clauses he 

 may direct.
