MAY 6.] THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. 981

No pay will be allowed by Government to cadets in the “Britannia.” The pocket-money allowed to cadets will be charged to the parents.
As only cadets who are able to swim are permitted to use the boats belonging to H.M.S. “Britannia,” the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty desire to impress upon parents and guardians the importance of cadets being taught to swim before they join the training-ship, so as to enable them to obtain the full benefits of use of the boats.

By command of their Lordships.

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ...
