shall be collected by stamps under the said Act; and
with the like advice and consent doth hereby make
the regulations hereinafter contained:—

1. Such stamps may be either impressed or
   adhesive.
2. No stamps shall be used in respect of any pro-
   ceedings where stamps are required, except such as
   are known as Law Court stamps, and are marked
   with the words "Law Courts."
3. Before anything is done, or permitted to be
   done, in respect of any matter or thing for which
   any duty, fee, fine, or penalty is payable by stamps,
   the stamps by which the fee is paid, if adhesive, shall
   be cancelled by the person using the same by writing
   or stamping in, into, on, or across the stamp his
   name or initials, or the name or initials of his firm,
   together with the true date of his so writing or
   stamping, so that the stamp may be effectually can-
   celled and rendered incapable of being used for any
   other purpose whatsoever.
4. Stamps for denoting duties, fees, fines, and
   penalties may be impressed at the Head Office on
   blank forms, and on paper not previously written
   upon. Requisitions from solicitors and others for
   stamps must be accompanied by a receipt from the
   Bank of New Zealand for the amount of the re-
   quisition, and the forms and papers required to be
   stamped, the desired position of the stamp upon
   which should be distinctly marked.
5. Law Courts stamps, adhesive and impressed,
   may be obtained from the Deputy Commissioners of
   Stamps, and from the Depositaries and Licensed
   Dealers in Stamps in all towns at which Resident
   Magistrates' Courts are held.
6. Depositaries and Licensed Dealers are required
   to sell stamps on demand at all times during office
   hours. Such stamps must be paid for in cash at the
   time of application.
7. A commission (in the form of discount) will be
   allowed on all purchases of stamps issued under the
   said Act, after the following scale: To licensed
   dealers, 2½ per cent. on all purchases of £2 and up-
   wards; to all other persons, 2½ per cent. on all pur-
   chases of £5 and upwards.
8. The regulations issued or to be issued under
   "The Stamp Act, 1875," relating to the allowance of
   spoiled stamps shall, in so far as they are applicable,
   apply to stamps issued under "The Stamp Fee Act,
   1875."
9. The several stamps required to be used shall
   be impressed on or affixed to the documents men-
   tioned in the Schedule hereto.
