ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House, at Wellington, this fourteenth day of October, 1912.

Present :

His Excellency the Governor in Council.

WHEREAS it is enacted by Part II of the Fisheries Act, 1908, that the Governor in Council may from time to time, by Order in Council gazetted, make regulations to have force and effect throughout New Zealand, or only in such waters and places as are specified in the regulations :

And whereas by Order in Council dated the seventh day of October, one thousand nine hundred and twelve, and published in the New Zealand Gazette No. 77, of the tenth day of the same month, regulations for the Auckland Acclimatization District were made providing that no lure or bait other than the natural or artificial fly, or natural or artificial minnow, and any small indigenous fish, insect, grasshopper beetle, or spider shall be used, and that the use of shell-fish, koura, worms, or the houhou or matai grub shall be a breach of the regulations :

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers and authorities conferred upon him by the said Act, 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 Dominion, doth hereby add the following proviso to the hereinbefore-recited regulation :—

“Provided that no bait other than artificial fly shall be used for taking fish in that portion of the Waihou River which lies between the bridge next below the Okoroire Hotel and the bridge at Tirau.”
