✨ Foreshore Licensing, Trout Fishing Regulations
972 THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. [No. 51
-
The concessions and privileges conferred by this Order
in Council shall extend and apply only to the parts of the
foreshore and of the land below low-water mark required for
laying down and maintaining thereon pipes for the con-
veyance of sea-water to salt-pans for the manufacture of
salt, as shown on the plan marked M.D. 1450, and deposited
in the office of the Marine Department as aforesaid. -
In consideration of the concessions and privileges
granted by this Order in Council, the said Henry Sankey
shall, on being supplied with a copy thereof, pay to the
Minister the sum of five pounds, and thereafter an annual
sum of one shilling during the subsistence of the license
hereby granted, on the same being lawfully demanded. -
The rights, powers, and privileges conferred by or under
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 privi-
leges shall be altered, modified, or revoked by competent
authority; and the said Henry Sankey shall not assign,
charge, or part with any such right, power, or privilege
without the previous written consent of the Minister first
obtained. -
The said rights, powers, and privileges may be at any
time resumed and the license hereby granted revoked by the
Governor, and the said Henry Sankey may be required to
remove the pipes or other erections used in connection there-
with from the foreshore, and land below low-water mark, at
his own cost, without payment of any compensation what-
ever, on giving to the said Henry Sankey three calendar
months' previous notice in writing. Notice of such re-
sumption and revocation or otherwise under this condition
shall be sufficient if given by the Minister, and delivered
at or posted to the last known address of the said Henry
Sankey. -
In case the said Henry Sankey shall—
(1.) Commit or suffer a breach of the terms or conditions
hereinbefore set forth, or any of them ;
(2.) Cease to use the said pipes ;
(3.) Fail to pay the sums specified in clause two of these
conditions ;
(4.) Become bankrupt or be in any manner brought under
the operation of any Act for the time being in force
relating to bankruptcy; or
(5.) Shall die during the subsistence of the license hereby
granted,
then and in any of the said cases this Order in Council and
every license, right, power, or privilege may be revoked and
determined by the Governor in Council without any notice
to the said Henry Sankey or other proceeding whatsoever;
and publication in the New Zealand Gazette of an Order
in Council containing such revocation shall be sufficient
notice to the said Henry Sankey, and to all persons con-
cerned or interested, that this Order in Council and the
license, rights, and privileges thereby granted and conferred
have been revoked and determined; and upon such revoca-
tion the Minister may cause the said pipes or other erections
used in connection therewith to be removed, and may re-
cover the cost incurred by any such removal from the said
Henry Sankey, his heirs, executors, administrators, or
assigns. -
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 direc-
tion of such Minister.
