Abstract: We examine gravitational waves in an isolated axi--symmetric reflexion symmetric NGT system. The structure of the vacuum field equations is analyzed and the exact solutions for the field variables in the metric tensor are found in the form of expansions in powers of a radial coordinate. We find that in the NGT axially symmetric case the mass of the system remains constant only if the system is static (as it necessarily is in the case of spherical symmetry). If the system radiates, then the mass decreases monotonically and the energy flux associated with waves is positive.
