At the Government House, at Wellington, this thirtieth day of April, 1906.

Present:

His Excellency the Governor in Council.

WHEREAS it is enacted by section five of “The Sea-fisheries Amendment Act, 1903,” that the annual fee payable in respect of a license under section sixteen of the principal Act shall be such sum (not exceeding two pounds) as the Governor in Council determines, and that such Order may apply generally to the whole of New Zealand, or to any specified part thereof, and so that such fee may vary in different parts of New Zealand:

And whereas the fee payable in respect of a license in the North Island and the islands adjacent thereto was, by Order in Council dated the tenth day of April, one thousand nine hundred and five, and published in the New Zealand Gazette of the twentieth day of the same month, determined and declared to be one pound:

And whereas it is desirable to revoke the said Order in Council of the tenth day of April, one thousand nine hundred and five, and to determine another fee in lieu of that determined in such Order in Council:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in exercise of the hereinbefore-recited power and authority, and of all other powers and authorities enabling him in that behalf, and acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said colony, doth hereby revoke the said Order in Council of the tenth day of April, one thousand nine hundred and five, and doth hereby determine and declare that the annual fee payable in respect of a license to take oysters under section sixteen of “The Sea-fisheries Act, 1894,” in the North Island and islands adjacent thereto shall be one pound ten shillings.

Declaring Auckland Oyster-fishery, and Portions in which it is lawful and unlawful to take Oysters.

PLUNKET, Governor.

WHEREAS it is, amongst other things, enacted by the fifteenth section of “The Sea-fisheries Act, 1894,” that the Governor may from time to time declare any bay, estuary, or tidal waters in the colony to be an oyster-fishery, and prescribe the subdivisions thereof wherein it shall be lawful and unlawful to take oysters:

And whereas by Warrant under the hand of the Governor, dated the fourth day of May, one thousand nine hundred and five, and published in the New Zealand Gazette of the fifth day of the same month, the Auckland Oyster-fishery was constituted and divided into subdivisions:

And whereas it is desirable to revoke the said Warrant, and to make another in lieu thereof:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the hereinbefore-recited power and authority, and of all other powers and authorities enabling him in that behalf, doth hereby revoke and determine the said Warrant of the fourth day of May, one thousand nine hundred and five, and doth hereby declare the bays, estuaries, and tidal waters situated between a point on high-water mark of the sea due east of Trig. Station No. 29 on the South Head of Whangaruru Harbour and the northernmost point of the South Head of Tairua Harbour, including the bays, estuaries, and tidal waters of any islands situated between the said points on the South Head of Whangaruru Harbour and the South Head of Tairua Harbour, excepting the bays, estuaries, and tidal waters of the Island of Kawau, to be an oyster-fishery under the name of “the Auckland Oyster-fishery”; and I do hereby divide the same into seven subdivisions, namely:—

1. The Whangarei Subdivision, which shall include the bays, estuaries, and tidal waters situated between a point on high-water mark of the sea due east of Trig.
