NORMANBY, Governor.
ORDER IN COUNCIL.
At the Government House, at Wellington, this
third day of March, 1875.
Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS by the thirty-ninth section of "The
Licensing Act 1873 Amendment Act, 1874,"
it is, among other things, enacted that, in order to
make provision for the granting of licenses on gold
fields and in outlying districts, it shall be lawful for the
Governor from time to time to proclaim any district
in any province of the colony, the boundaries whereof
shall be defined in such Proclamation, to be a special
licensing district, and the boundaries of such district
from time to time to alter, and to abolish any such
district:

Provided that it shall be lawful for the Legislature
of any province in which any such districts may be
proclaimed to provide and declare what fees shall be
payable for any such license; to attach conditions to
the exercise and duration of any such license, and
to impose upon the licensee such duties, liabilities,
and obligations as shall be thought fit; and, subject
to the said Act, to prescribe the forms, time, and
mode of granting any such licenses:

Provided further that until any such Legislature
shall have passed any such Ordinance as aforesaid, it
shall be lawful for the Governor in Council to make
any regulations for all or any of the purposes for
which any such Ordinance may or can be passed under
or by virtue of the now reciting section, and all such
regulations shall be made with the consent of the
Superintendent of the province in which they are to
take effect, and shall be published in the New Zealand
Gazette, and in the Gazette of the province in which
they are so to take effect:

And whereas, by a Proclamation bearing even date
herewith, a special licensing district, to be called
"The Ohinemuri Special Licensing District," has been
constituted within the Province of Auckland:

And whereas the Legislature of the said province
has not passed any Ordinance for the purposes in the
hereinbefore recited section mentioned, and it is
expedient that regulations should be made for such
purposes:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor, by
and with the advice and consent of the Executive
Council of the colony, in pursuance and exercise of
the power and authority vested in him in this behalf,
and with the consent of the Superintendent of the
said province, doth hereby make the following regu-
lations for the purposes aforesaid :—

REGULATIONS.

1. Licenses may be issued for the sale of alcoholic
   liquors within the Special Licensing District of
   Ohinemuri upon payment of a fee not exceeding
   forty pounds nor less than twenty pounds.

2. All such licenses shall be made to expire on the
   31st day of December next following the date of
   granting the same.

3. The house and premises in respect of which any
   such license may be granted shall not be opened
   before six o'clock in the morning, and shall be closed
   at ten o'clock at night: provided that upon payment
   at the time of issue of license of an extra fee of five
   pounds, permission may be given to keep open the
   licensed premises until twelve o'clock p.m.; but
   the restrictions in this regulation contained shall not
   apply to the supply of refreshments to bona fide
   travellers.

4. No such licensed house or premises shall be

opened for the sale of alcoholic liquors on Sundays,
except in the case of bond fide travellers as aforesaid.

5. The accommodation to be provided in respect
   of any house or premises for which a license shall be
   applied for hereunder shall be such as shall be ap-
   proved of by the person empowered to grant such
   license.

6. Applications for licenses must be in writing,
   addressed to the person empowered to grant the
   same, and must specify the locality for which the
   license is asked, and the accommodation provided or
   intended to be provided for the public, and the
   hours during which it is proposed such house and
   premises shall be open.

7. Except in so far as they may be inconsistent
   with or contrary to the provisions of section 39 of
   "The Licensing Act 1873 Amendment Act, 1874," and
   of these regulations, the whole of the laws now in
   force within the Province of Auckland for the regu-
   lation of the sale of alcoholic liquors shall be
   applicable to all licenses granted hereunder; and
   excepting as aforesaid, any such licensee shall be
   deemed to have imposed upon him all the duties, lia-
   bilities, and obligations which are imposed upon the
   holders of publicans' licenses under the said laws.

8. Every license granted hereunder shall be sub-
   ject to be forfeited, if in the opinion of the person
   empowered to grant licenses hereunder it shall be
   necessary or desirable to do so; and such forfeiture
   shall be deemed to be complete when notice thereof
   under his hand shall have been delivered to the
   licensee or affixed to the licensed premises.
