Act"), that the Governor in Council may from time to time
make regulations which shall have general force and effect
throughout the colony, or particular force and effect only in

And whereas it is expedient to prohibit the use of jiggers
in taking whitebait:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the
Colony, in pursuance and exercise of the power and authority
conferred upon him by the said Act, and by and with the

force and effect throughout the colony.

REGULATIONS.

  1. No person shall use, for the purpose of enabling him
    to catch whitebait, the device or appliance known as a
    "jigger," which is an appliance formed of pieces of metal or
    other substance attached to a line and placed in a river or
    stream for the purpose of turning the fish into nets; nor shall
    any other device or contrivance be used which tends to
    wholly prevent the movement of such fish up or down
    stream.

  2. Any person committing a breach of the above regula-
    tions shall be liable to a penalty of not less than £1 and not
    exceeding £20.
