And whereas it is provided by section seventeen of the said Act that in and by any such Order in Council it may be prescribed what dues and rates shall be taken by the body or person in whom any such wharf shall be vested as aforesaid:

And whereas it is thought desirable to vest in Otamatea County Council the management of the wharves at Matakohe, Pahi, and Point Curtis, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make regulations, and to prescribe the dues and rates which shall be taken by the said Council for the use of such wharves:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said colony, and in pursuance and exercise of the power and authority vested in him by the said fourteenth and seventeenth sections of the said Act, and of all other powers and authorities in anywise enabling him in that behalf, doth hereby vest the management of the wharves at Matakohe, Pahi, and Point Curtis, in Kaipara Harbour—as shown on plans marked M.D. 164, 432, 433, 459, and 460, and deposited in the office of the Marine Department at Wellington—in the Otamatea County Council, subject to the conditions set forth in the First Schedule hereto; and doth hereby prescribe that the dues and rates set forth in the Second Schedule hereto shall, on and after the date of this Order in Council, be taken by the said Council for the use of the said wharves.
