Licensing the New Zealand Iron and Steel Company
(Limited) to use and occupy a Part of the Foreshore of
the Manukau Harbour.

Wm. F. DRUMMOND JERVOIS,
Governor.

ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House, at Wellington, this fourteenth
day of October, 1884.

Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS by "The Harbours Act Amendment Act,
1883" (hereinafter called "the said Act"), it is,
among other things, enacted that, where the foreshore has
been legally vested in any Harbour Board or other local
governing body, it may from time to time, subject to the pro-
visions of the one hundred and fifty-sixth section of "The
Harbours Act, 1878," license and permit any part of the
foreshore to be used or occupied, inter alia, for the purpose
of any local enterprise or object which the Governor in
Council may approve: And whereas by the said Act it
is also provided that every licensee shall, subject to the
provisions of the said Act, have power to make and construct
any necessary reclamation for the purpose of erecting on the
foreshore comprised in his license, or upon any land below
low-water mark immediately contiguous to such foreshore
which shall be specified in such license, any building,
structure, erection, or other works to enable him to obtain
the full benefit of such license: And whereas by the said
Act it is further provided that every such license shall be in
writing under the seal of the Board or body granting the
same, and may be for any period not exceeding fourteen
years from the date thereof, and may prescribe a sum of
money to be payable either at stated periods or on or before
the granting thereof for the use of the foreshore so granted,
and may prescribe any other terms or conditions, general or
particular, to be observed or performed by the person to
whom the same is granted: And whereas by the said Act it
is also enacted that, in any case where there is no Harbour
Board, or no Harbour Board empowered to grant any such
license as aforesaid, the Governor in Council may in his
discretion grant and issue a license for all or any of the pur-
poses hereinbefore mentioned, and all the provisions of the
said Act in respect of such licenses shall, mutatis mutandis,
apply accordingly: And whereas the New Zealand Iron
and Steel Company (Limited), hereinafter called "the said
company," has applied for a license under the said Act to
occupy a part of the foreshore in the Manukau Harbour in
order to maintain thereon a landing-place; and, in accord-
ance with the one hundred and fifty-sixth section of "The
Harbours Act, 1878," has deposited plans in the office of the
Marine Department, at Wellington (marked M.D. 974 and
975) showing the manner in which it is proposed to construct
landing-stages and other erections, and the place where it is
intended to erect the same, and the area of the foreshore
intended to be occupied for such purpose: And whereas
it has been made to appear to the Governor in Council that
the proposed work will not be or tend to the injury of navi-
gation; and the said plans have, prior to the making of this
Order in Council, been approved by the Governor in Council:
And whereas there is no Harbour Board having jurisdiction
in the said port, and it is expedient that a license should be
granted and issued to the said company under the said Act,
for the purposes aforesaid, on the terms and conditions here-
inafter expressed:

Now, therefore, the Governor of the Colony of New Zea-
land, in pursuance and exercise of the power and authority
vested in him by the said Act, and with the advice and con-
sent of the Executive Council of the said colony, doth hereby
license and permit the said company to use and occupy a
part of the foreshore of the Manukau Harbour, being a part
of the foreshore leased to the said company by the Governor
on the sixth day of August, one thousand eight hundred
and eighty-four, under "The Special Powers and Contracts
Act, 1883," for the purpose of using the same as a landing-
place for raw material and plant used by the said company
in the manufacture of iron and steel; such license to be held
and enjoyed by the said company upon and subject to the
following terms and conditions, that is to say,—

1. That nothing herein contained shall authorize the said
   company to do or cause to be done anything repugnant to
   or inconsistent with any law relating to the Customs, or any
   regulation of the Commissioner of Trade and Customs, or with
   any provisions of "The Harbours Act, 1878," or its amend-
   ments, or any regulations made thereunder, and that are
   now or may hereafter be in force.

2. That all material discharged at such landing-place
   from vessels or barges consigned to or employed by the said
   company shall be taken away by the said company and
   deposited above high-water mark.

3. That the rights, powers, and privileges conferred by this
   Order in Council shall continue in force for fourteen years,
   computed from the date of this Order in Council, unless in
   the meantime such rights, powers, and privileges shall be
   altered, modified, or revoked by competent authority; and
   the said company shall not assign, charge, or part with any
   such right, power, or privilege without the previous written
   consent of the Minister first obtained.

4. That the said rights, powers, and privileges may be at
   any time resumed by the Governor, without payment of
   any compensation whatever, on giving to the company six
   calendar months' previous notice in writing. Any such
   notice shall be sufficient if given by the Minister, and
   delivered at the registered office of the company.

5. No rates or dues shall be payable on any raw material
   or plant landed by the said company at such landing-place
   for the purpose of being used in the manufacture of iron or
   steel.

6. Nothing in this Order in Council or in these conditions
   contained shall abridge or interfere with the right of the
   public to use the said landing-place at all reasonable times
   without the payment of any fee or charge whatever.

7. In case the company shall—
   (1.) Commit or suffer a breach of the conditions herein-
   before set forth, or any of them;
   (2.) Cease to use or occupy the said landing-place; or
   (3.) Be wound up or dissolved in any manner, or suffer
   or permit any steps or proceedings to be taken by any
   person for the purpose of winding-up or dissolving the
   said company,
   then and in any of the said cases this Order in Council, and
   every right, power, or privilege, may be revoked and deter-
   mined by the Governor in Council without any notice to the
   company or other proceeding whatsoever; and publication in
   the New Zealand Gazette of an Order in Council contain-
   ing such revocation shall be sufficient notice to the com-
   pany, and to all persons concerned or interested, that this
   Order in Council, and the rights and privileges thereby con-
   ferred, have been revoked and determined.

8. In these conditions the term "Minister" means the
   Minister having charge of the Marine Department, as defined
   by "The Shipping and Seamen's Act, 1877," and includes
   any officer, person, or authority acting by or under the
   direction of such Minister.
