of the purposes hereinbefore mentioned, and all the pro-
visions of the said Act in respect of such licenses shall,
mutatis mutandis, apply accordingly: And whereas there
being no Harbour Board empowered to grant such license,
the Akaroa Borough Council (hereinafter called “the said
Council”) has applied to the Governor in Council 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 baths and

Act, 1878,” has deposited plans in the office of the Marine
Department, at Wellington (marked M.D. 1463 and 1464),
showing the place in the said harbour where it is intended to
erect such baths and bath-houses, and the manner in which
it is proposed to erect the same, 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 work 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, without modification or addition :

Now, therefore, His Excellency 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 with the advice
and consent of the Executive Council of the said colony, doth
hereby license and permit the said Council to use and occupy
those parts of the foreshore and of the land below low-water
mark immediately contiguous thereto which are particularly
shown and delineated on the plans so deposited as aforesaid,
for the purpose of constructing or erecting thereon baths and
bath-houses in accordance with the said plans, such license

   use and occupation of the foreshore and land below low-
   water mark, and with or without any charge for the same,
   and under such regulations for the decent and orderly use
   thereof as the said Council may make.

4. A printed copy of the regulations affecting the use of
   the said baths, and advantages as aforesaid, shall be put up
   by the said Council in such baths.

5. 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

   and the said Council shall not assign, charge, or part with
   any such right, power, or privilege without the previous
   written consent of the Minister first obtained.

6. 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 said Council three
   calendar months’ previous notice in writing. Any such
   notice shall be sufficient if given by the Minister, and de-
   livered at or posted to the last known address of the said
   Council.

7. In case the said Council shall—
   (1.) Commit or suffer a breach of the conditions herein-
   before set forth, or any of them; or
   (2.) Cease to provide or maintain the said baths for the
   use of the public for bathing purposes,
   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 said Council 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 Council, and to all persons concerned or
   interested, that this Order in Council and the rights and
   privileges thereby conferred have been revoked and deter-
   mined.

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 direc-
   tion of such Minister.
