    shall be final and binding on such proprietor.

24. All moneys payable to the Council by any proprietor
    or proprietors, whether for charges for the supply of water, or
    for the use of the water in the water-race, or for the cost of
    any works which shall be undertaken by the Council, and for
    the payment of which a proprietor is by any of these by-laws
    made liable, or on any other account, shall be paid in ad-
    vance, and the Council may refuse to supply the land of any
    such proprietor with water, or permit him to use the water,
    or to commence any such work as aforesaid, or to permit the
    same to be commenced, until payment of all such moneys
    has been made.

For the purposes of this by-law all annual charges shall
become payable on the 1st day of January in each
year.

    water to the land of any proprietor, and prevent any pro-
    prictor from using any of the water in any of the cases
    following, that is to say,——

(a.) In case he shall in his application make an untrue
statement as to any matter respecting which he is
hereby required to make a statement ;

(b.) In case he shall fail to do and perform any matter or
thing which he shall undertake or agree to do ;

(c.) In case he shall fail to pay any charges for the supply
of water or for the use of water on the days or at the
times when the same shall become payable, or in case
he shall fail to pay any rate imposed or levied on his
lands situate in the district, in respect of the con-
struction or maintenance of the said water-race, when
such rate shall be legally payable by him ;

(d.) In case he shall fail or refuse to submit to and abide
by or to obey or carry out any decision of the Council
on any matter in respect of which the decision of the
Council is by any of these by-laws made binding upon
him ;

(e.) In case he shall commit any breach of any of these
by-laws ;

(f.) In case he shall fail or neglect to cleanse or repair his
distributing channel during the months of May and
November in each year, so that the next adjoining
proprietor shall be prevented from receiving his fair
proportion of the water flowing through the gauge.

The provisions of this by-law shall apply to a case provided
for by By-law No. 4, and may be put in force against all the
proprietors who shall unite in an application, in case any of
the matters or things herein specified shall be done, com-
mitted, omitted, or suffered by any one of such proprietors.

26. Any person offending against or committing a breach
    of or failing to comply with any of these by-laws shall for

27. All by-laws previously made by the Council respecting
    water-races under any of the above-mentioned Acts are
    hereby repealed, but this repeal shall not affect the past

    or invalidity of anything done or suffered, or any right
    acquired or duty or liability incurred under any of such
    by-laws.
