THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE.

By His Honor THOMAS DICK, Superintendent
of the Province of Otago.

WHEREAS by virtue of the powers in him vested
in that behalf, His Honor John Hyde Harris,
then being Superintendent of the Province of Otago,
did, by Proclamation in the Government Gazette of
the said Province, dated the eighteenth day of
January, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-four,
make publish, and proclaim certain regulations for
prohibiting the removal and transportation of cattle
out of the several infected districts mentioned in the
said Proclamation: And whereas it is expedient that
the removal of cattle from the said several infected
distsicts, and from other infected districts within the
Province of Otago should in some cases be permitted:
Now therefore, by virtue of the powers vested in me
in this behalf, I, Thomas Dick, Superintendent of the
said Province, do make, publish, and proclaim the
following regulations; and I do declare that the
regulations hereby made and published shall be read
with and form part of the said Regulations made and
published on the said eighteenth day of January, one
thousand eight hundred and sixty-four.

REGULATIONS.

  1. Any person who is desirous of driving or
    removing, or of causing to be driven or removed, any
    cattle from or out of any infected district within the
    Province of Otago, shall first obtain, after inspection,
    a certificate from the Inspector or one of the Inspec-
    tors of the infected district from which it is proposed
    to remove such cattle in the form of the Schedule
    hereto annexed, or to the effect thereof, which certifi-
    cate shall be a sufficient authority to drive or remove
    such cattle from and out of such infected district at
    any time within the period specified in such certifi-
    cate: Provided that such certificate shall have no
    force or validity unless the cattle shall be so driven
    or removed within the time specified therein.

  2. Every Inspector of an infected district, upon
    being required by notice in writing from any person,
    and served personally upon him, or left at such In-
    spector's usual place of abode, and upon payment or
    tender to him of the fees which by the 17th regula-
    tion he is entitled to receive, shall attend at any
    place mentioned in such notice within his district
    forthwith after the receipt of such notice, or within a
    reasonable time thereafter, for the purpose of examin-
    ing any cattle which it is proposed to drive or remove
    from or out of his district, with a view to decide
    whether he shall grant the certificate required by the
    13th regulation.

  3. Every Inspector, after examining, when requested
    as aforesaid, any cattle which it is proposed to drive
    or remove from and out of his district, and after
    obtaining from the proprietor or person in charge of
    such cattle a written declaration that they have been
    free from disease for a period of six months prior to
    such examination, shall, if he be satisfied by such
    examination and declaration, or otherwise, that such
    cattle or any of them are free from disease, and have
    been so for six months, grant a certificate in the form
    contained in the Schedule hereto annexed, or to the
    like effect, which certificate shall be a sufficient
    authority for the removal of such cattle from the
    infected district at any time within the period pre-
    scribed by the said certificate. And it shall be lawful
    for any such Inspector to defer granting such certifi-
    cate for any time not longer than fourteen days in
    cases where he suspects that such cattle have in-
    curred risk of infection, and such Inspector may, by
    inquiry and such other means as he thinks fit, satisfy
    himself whether there is reason to believe that such
    cattle are infected.

  4. The Inspector's certificate for the driving or
    removal of cattle out of an infected district shall be
    in the form contained in the Schedule hereto annexed,

or to the like effect, and shall authorize the removal
of the cattle in the certificate specified within a time
to be fixed therein.

  1. The Inspector shall be entitled to fees at the
    rate of two pounds per diem during the time he may
    be employed, and travelling expenses at the rate
    of one shilling and sixpence per mile one way, for
    granting certificates for the removal of such cattle
    out of his district, which fees shall be paid before
    inspection by the person applying for such examina-
    tion and certificate as aforesaid.
