Council for a license under the said Act to occupy a part

ment, at Wellington, marked M.D. 3813, showing the area
of foreshore and land below low-water mark intended to
be occupied, and the manner in which it is proposed to

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 should be granted and issued
to the licensee under the said Act, for the purpose afore-
said, on the terms and conditions hereinafter expressed:

approve of the 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
