HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS the Governor in Council did, on the

which the Invercargill Borough Council (hereinafter called
“ the Council ”) proposed to construct across the New

authorise the Council to construct the said tram-line:

And whereas it is desirable that the said Order in Coun-
cil and the approval and authority thereby conferred
should be revoked and determined, and that another plan
should be approved, and that the construction of the tram-
line in accordance therewith should be authorised:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand, in exercise of the power and authority con-
ferred upon him by “ The Harbours Act, 1878, ” 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
and determine the said Order in Council of the thirtieth
day of April, one thousand nine hundred and six, and every
right and privilege thereby conferred; and doth hereby
approve of plan marked M.D. 2995, in duplicate, showing
a tram-line across the said estuary and the place where it
is to be constructed; and doth authorise and license the
Council to construct the said tram-line in accordance with
such plan, and to use and occupy such part of the foreshore,
tidal land, and tidal water necessary therefor, subject to the
following terms and conditions, that is to say:—

1. The tram-line shall be for the use and benefit of the
   public.

2. The Council may make such charge for the use of the
   tram-line as may be approved by the Minister of Marine.

3. The rights, powers, and privileges conferred by the
   Order in Council shall continue in force for fourteen years,
   computed from the date thereof; and the Council shall not
   assign, charge, or part with any such right, power, or privi-
   lege without the previous written consent of the Minister
   of Marine first obtained.

4. The Council shall be liable for any damage or injury
   which the tram-line may cause to any person through any
   negligence or default on its part.
