PLUNKET, Governor.

ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House, at Wellington, this fifth day of
March, 1910.

Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS, there being no Harbour Board empowered
to grant the license hereinafter mentioned, Alfred
Charles Hanlon, of Dunedin (hereinafter called “the
licensee”), has applied to the Governor in Council for a
license under “The Harbours Act, 1903” (hereinafter called
“the said Act”), to occupy a part of the foreshore and land
below low-water mark adjacent thereto in order to erect and
maintain thereon a boatshed, staging, and slipway at Broad
Bay, Otago Harbour; and, in accordance with the one-
hundred-and-fiftieth section of the said Act, has deposited a
plan in the office of the Marine Department, at Wellington,
marked M.D. 3483 (two sheets), showing such shed, staging,
and slipway, and the place in the said harbour where it is
intended to erect the same, and the area of foreshore and
land below low-water mark intended to be occupied for such
purpose: And whereas it has been made to appear to the
Governor in Council that the proposed work will not be or
tend to the injury of navigation; and the said plan has,
prior to the making of this Order in Council, been approved
by the Governor in Council: And whereas it is expedient that
a license under the said Act, for the purpose aforesaid, should
be granted and issued to the licensee on the terms and con-
ditions hereinafter expressed:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the
Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the
power and authority vested in him by the said Act, and with
the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said
Dominion, doth hereby approve of the purpose or object for
which the said license is required by the licensee as aforesaid;
and, in further pursuance and exercise of the said power and
authority, and with the like advice and consent as aforesaid,
doth hereby license and permit the licensee to use and occupy
that part of the foreshore and land below low-water mark
which is particularly shown and delineated on the plan so
deposited as aforesaid, for the purpose of constructing or
erecting thereon a boatshed, staging, and slipway, such
license to be held and enjoyed by the licensee upon and
subject to the following terms and conditions, that is to
say:—

  1. In these conditions the term “Minister” means the
    Minister of Marine, as defined by “The Shipping and Sea-
    men Act, 1908,” and includes any officer, person, or authority
    acting by or under the direction of such Minister.

  2. The concessions and privileges conferred by this Order
    in Council shall extend and apply only to the part of the
    foreshore and land below low-water mark necessary for the
    erecting of the said boatshed, staging, and slipway, as shown
    on the said plan marked M.D. 3483 (sheet 2).

  3. In consideration of the concessions and privileges
    granted by this Order in Council, the licensee shall, on
    being supplied with a copy of this Order in Council, pay to
    the Minister the sum of two pounds ten shillings, and there-
    after an annual sum of ten shillings, such annual payments
    to date from the date hereof, the first of such annual pay-
    ments to be made on the licensee being supplied with a copy
    of this Order in Council.

  4. The rights, powers, and privileges conferred by or under
    this Order in Council shall continue in force for fourteen
    years, computed from the date of this Order in Council,
    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.

  5. The said rights, powers, and privileges may be at any
    time resumed by the Governor, and the licensee may be
    required to remove the boatshed, staging, and slipway at his
    own cost, 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.

  6. The licensee shall be liable for any injury which may
    be sustained by any vessel or boat in passing the boatshed,
    staging, or slipway, or by contact with it, and which may be
    occasioned by any default or neglect on the licensee’s part.

  7. In case the licensee shall—
    (1.) Commit or suffer a breach of the conditions herein-
    before set forth, or any of them;
    (2.) Cease to use or occupy the said boatshed, staging,
    or slipway for a period of thirty days;
    (3.) Fail to pay the sums specified in clause three of
    these conditions; or
