refused the fee shall be refunded to the applicant. -
The Committee shall have power to refuse to grant
any license, also to limit the number of cattle which may
be depastured under any license. They shall also have
power to specify the kind of cattle which may be depastured
under any license. -
The number of cattle to be depastured shall be men-
tioned in the license, and the rent to be paid in respect of
such license shall be calculated upon the following scale,
that is to say:—
For every head of great cattle mentioned s. d.
in the license, if such license is issued
before 1st July .. .. .. .. 10 0
For every head of great cattle mentioned in
the license, if such license is issued
after 1st July .. .. .. .. 5 0

the license, if such license is issued be-
fore 1st July .. .. .. .. 2 6
For every head of small cattle mentioned in
the license, if such license is issued after
1st July .. .. .. .. 1 3
Every such license shall be in the form or to the effect
contained in the Second Schedule hereto, and shall expire
on the thirty-first day of December in every year, when such
license may be renewed in accordance with the foregoing
provisions. Every license shall be granted subject to the
conditions herein set forth, and shall be signed by the Chair-
man of the Committee.
-
The revenue derived from license-fees or otherwise
from the said commonage shall stand first charged with the
cost of the destruction and prevention of the spreading of
rabbits upon such commonage, such cost to be ascertained in
such manner as may be fixed and determined by the Chief
Inspector of Stock. -
All cattle depastured must be branded, and the brand
and a description of the cattle must be registered with the
Ranger. The Ranger shall issue a certificate of registration
in such form as he thinks fit, and the fee for every such
certificate shall be one shilling. But if the brand is regis-
tered with the application, no further registration shall be
necessary. -
No great cattle suffering from any disease shall be
depastured upon, nor shall any pigs or goats be allowed to
trespass or be at large upon or within, the lands described in
the First Schedule. No bull, ram, or stallion shall be de-
pastured without the express permission in writing of the
Chairman of the Committee. Any person or persons com-
mitting a breach of this provision shall be liable, on the
information of such Chairman, as for trespass of cattle on
Crown lands; and the Chairman of Committee for the time
being is hereby empowered to lay any such information. -
If any licensee shall at any time commit or suffer a
breach of the conditions or terms upon which the license is
granted, as the same are herein set forth, the Chairman of
the Committee may, on such evidence as he thinks fit, cancel
and determine the license held by such licensee, and he shall
have no claim to any refund or allowance in respect thereof. -
No person shall remove beyond the boundary of the
land described in the First Schedule any cattle other than
those belonging to him, or for the removal of which he shall
have authority from the Ranger, under a penalty not exceed-
ing five pounds. -
If any person, not being licensed as aforesaid, shall
depasture any great cattle or small cattle upon the lands
described in the First Schedule, or a greater number of such
cattle than shall have been apportioned to him, every such
person shall be liable, on the information of the Chairman of
Committee, as for trespass of cattle on Crown lands, and also
to any penalty or disability imposed in respect of unlawful
occupation of Crown land. -
Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to interfere
with the powers or duties of the Commissioner of Crown
Lands of the district in which the lands described in the
First Schedule are situated, whether under "The Land Act,
1892," or under any other law or statute for the time being
in force; and the said lands described in the First Schedule
hereto shall, subject to the special provisions hereinbefore
