Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of all powers and authorities enabling him in that behalf, and by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said colony, doth hereby revoke the charge under the subdivision lettered (h) in the scale of charges set forth in the Schedule to the said Order in Council, and, by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council as aforesaid, doth hereby substitute therefor and fix the charge set forth in the Schedule hereto.
