Jan. 27.] THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. 135
And whereas the Union Steam Saw Moulding, Sash, and Door Company (Limited), of Auckland (hereinafter called “the company”), desires to construct a boom on the Tairua River, in Tairua Harbour, a harbour where no Harbour Board is in existence, and the company has applied to the Governor in Council for the issue of an order to authorize the construction of such boom, and has deposited plan thereof (marked M.D. 1267) at the office of the Marine Department, Wellington, in the manner prescribed by the one hundred and fifty-sixth section of the said Act, and, it having been made to appear to the Governor in Council that the proposed work will not be or tend to the injury of navigation, the Governor in Council hath this day approved of the said deposited plan without any modification or addition, and subject to the conditions set forth in the Order in Council:
Now, therefore, the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the power and authority vested in him by the said Act, and by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said colony, doth hereby authorize the company to construct a boom on the Tairua River, Tairua Harbour, in accordance with and in the position shown on the said plan marked M.D. 1267, and to use and occupy such portion of the foreshore or of any tidal land or tidal water as may be necessary for the construction and use of such boom, subject to the following conditions, namely:—
-
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 company shall not assign, charge, or part with any such right, power, or privilege without the previous written consent of the Minister first obtained.
-
In consideration of the concessions and privileges granted by this Order in Council the company shall, on being supplied with a copy thereof, pay to the Minister the sum of five pounds, and thereafter an annual sum of two pounds, in respect of the boom, to be paid in two half-yearly instalments on the thirtieth day of June and the thirty-first day of December, the payment of such annual sum to date from the thirty-first day of December, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-six.
-
On the master or owner of any vessel or boat notifying to the company, or its agent, manager, or any other person who appears to have the charge or management of the affairs of the company at Tairua, that such master or owner desires to take his vessel or boat past the boom, the company shall forthwith provide, free of expense to the vessel or boat, a sufficient number of men to work the movable part of the boom, so that the vessel or boat may pass through without delay.
-
Should it at any time become necessary for the convenience of the traffic on the Tairua River that the opening in the boom should be wider than shown on plan marked M.D. 1267, the Minister may, by a notice in writing, left at or posted to the registered office of the company, require the company to provide an opening of the width specified in such notice, and the company shall thereupon, with all convenient speed, cause such opening to be made.
-
The company shall cause all logs which come down the river and are stopped by the boom to be secured and moored in pockets as soon as possible, so that the navigation of the river may not be impeded by them.
-
That the said rights, powers, and privileges may be at any time resumed by the Governor, and the company may be required to remove the boom from the Tairua River and the bed thereof at their own cost, 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 last-known address of the company.
-
The company shall be liable for any injury which may be sustained by any vessel or boat in passing by the booms, or by contact with them, which may be occasioned by any default or neglect of the company.
-
Nothing contained in this Order in Council shall be deemed to prevent its revocation at any time and without any notice, in case the company shall—
(1.) Commit or suffer a breach of the conditions hereinbefore set forth, or any of them;
(2.) Cease to use or occupy the said boom; or
(3.) Be in any manner wound up or dissolved.
And publication in the New Zealand Gazette of an Order in Council containing such revocation shall be sufficient notice to the company, and to all persons concerned or interested in the said boom, that this Order in Council and the rights and privileges thereby conferred have been revoked and determined. -
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.

ORDER IN COUNCIL.
At the Government Buildings, at Wellington, this seventeenth day of January, 1887.
Present:
THE HONOURABLE THE MINISTER FOR PUBLIC WORKS PRESIDING IN COUNCIL.
WHEREAS by “The Maori Real Estate Management Act, 1867” (hereinafter called “the said Act”), it is enacted that, if any title to or interest in any hereditaments shall accrue to any Maoris who or any of whom shall be infants, lunatics, or under legal disability, it shall be lawful for the Governor in Council, if he think fit, to order that such hereditaments, or any part thereof or interest therein, as shall to the Governor in Council be shown to belong to such infant or lunatic or other person under legal disability shall be vested in trustees, as the Governor in Council shall think fit:
And whereas by “The Maori Real Estate Management Act Amendment Act, 1877,” it is provided that, in all cases in which no trustee of such estate of any infant Maori prior to the passing of the said last recited Act has been appointed, the Governor may appoint such trustee only on the recommendation of a Judge of the Native Land Court:
And whereas, in pursuance of orders bearing dates as contained in the first column of the Schedule hereto, made by the Judge named in the second column thereof, the persons named in the third column were recommended to the Governor as trustees under the said Acts on behalf of the persons named and under the disability described in the fourth column, in respect of the real estate described or referred to in the fifth column, for estates therein derived as mentioned in the sixth column:
Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of New Zealand, with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said colony, in exercise and pursuance of the powers and authorities vested in him by the said Acts, doth hereby order that the interests and shares of the persons under disability named in the Schedule hereto in the several blocks of land referred to therein shall be and remain vested in the several persons named in the third column thereof as trustees within the meaning and for the purposes of the said Acts for the said persons respectively during the term or terms of their minority or other disability; the said parcels of land having the areas and boundaries set forth in the Crown grants, certificates of title, and memorials of ownership affecting the same, and in the record maps in the office of the Surveyor-General.
