THE HONOURABLE THE PREMIER PRESIDING 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 provisions 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 purposes hereinbefore mentioned, and all the provisions of the said Act in respect of such licenses shall, mutatis mutandis, apply accordingly: And whereas Robert Blair, of Auckland, has applied for a license under the said Act to occupy a part of the foreshore and the land below low-water mark immediately contiguous to such foreshore, in order to erect and maintain thereon a certain boom across the Hikutaia River, Thames, for the purpose of confining floating timber; and, in accordance 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. 910 and 911), showing the place in the said river where it is intended to erect such boom, and the area of foreshore or land below low-water mark intended to be occupied for such purposes: And whereas it has been made to appear to the Governor in Council that the proposed works will not be or tend to the injury of navigation; and the said plans have, prior to the making of this Order in Council, been approved by the Governor in Council: And whereas the foreshore of the Hikutaia River has not been legally vested in any Harbour Board, and it is expedient that a license should be granted and issued to the said Robert Blair under the said Act, for the purposes aforesaid, on the terms and conditions hereinafter expressed:
