  3. In consideration of the concessions and privileges granted by this Order in Council, the licensee shall, on being supplied with a copy thereof, pay to the Minister the sum of one pound ten shillings, and thereafter an annual sum of five shillings, payable on the first day of May, dating from the first day of May, one thousand nine hundred and two, the first of such annual payments to be made on the licensee being supplied with a copy of this Order in Council.

  4. His Majesty, or the Governor, and all officers in the Government service acting in the execution of their duty, shall at all times have free ingress, passage, and egress into, through, and out of the said shed without payment.

  5. The licensee shall maintain the abovementioned shed in good order and repair; and shall at all times exhibit therefrom and maintain at his own cost suitable and necessary lights for the guidance of vessels: Provided that no light shall be exhibited until after it has been approved of by the Minister.

  6. Any person authorised by the Minister may at all reasonable times enter upon the said boat-shed and view the state of repair thereof; and, upon such Minister leaving at or posting to the last known address of the licensee in New Zealand a notice in writing of any defect or want of repair in such shed, requiring him, within a reasonable time, to be therein prescribed, to repair the same, he shall with all convenient speed cause such defect to be removed or such repairs to be made.

  7. Nothing herein contained shall authorise the licensee to do or cause to be done anything repugnant to or inconsistent with any law relating to the Customs, or any regulation of the Commissioner of Trade and Customs, or with any provisions of “The Harbours Act, 1878,” or its amendments, or any regulations made thereunder, and that are now or may hereafter be in force.

  8. The rights, powers, and privileges conferred by or under this Order in Council shall continue to be in force for fourteen years from the date hereof, unless in the meantime such rights, powers, and privileges shall be altered, modified, or revoked by competent authority; and the licensee shall not assign, charge, or part with any such right, power, or privilege without the previous written consent of the Minister first obtained.

  9. The said rights, powers, and privileges may be at any time resumed by the Governor without payment of any compensation whatever, on giving to the licensee three calendar months’ previous notice in writing. Any such notice shall be sufficient if given by the Minister, and delivered at or posted to the last known address of the licensee in New Zealand.

  10. The licensee shall be liable for any injury which the said boat-shed may cause any vessel or boat to sustain through any default or neglect on his part.

  11. In case the licensee shall—

(1.) Commit or suffer a breach of the conditions hereinbefore set forth, or any of them; or

(2.) Cease to use or occupy the said shed for a period of thirty days; or

(3.) Become bankrupt, or be in any manner brought under the operation of any Act for the time being in force relating to bankruptcy; or

(4.) Fail to pay the sums specified in clause 3 of these conditions,

then and in either of the said cases this Order in Council and every right, power, or privilege may be revoked and determined by the Governor in Council without any notice to the licensee or other proceeding whatsoever; and publication in the New Zealand Gazette of an Order in Council containing such revocation shall be sufficient notice to the licensee, and to all persons concerned or interested, that this Order in Council, and the license, rights, and privileges thereby granted and conferred, have been revoked and determined.

  1. The construction of the shed shall be sufficient evidence of the acceptance by the licensee of the terms and conditions of this Order in Council.
