At the Government House at Wellington, this eighth day of November, 1915.

Present :

His Excellency the Governor in Council.

WHEREAS, there being no Harbour Board empowered to grant the license hereinafter mentioned under the Harbours Act, 1908 (hereinafter called “the said Act”), Thomas Lodge, of Russell (hereinafter called “the licensee”), has applied to the Governor in Council for a license under the said Act to use and occupy a part of the foreshore and land below low-water mark of the Bay of Islands, at Russell, in order to maintain a wharf and sheds erected thereon: 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 whereas it is desirable that a license under the said Act, for the purpose aforesaid, should be granted and issued to the licensee for the term and subject to the conditions 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 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 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 adjacent thereto necessary for the maintenance of the said wharf, such license to be held and enjoyed by the licensee upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Schedule hereto.

SCHEDULE.

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 erection of the wharf.

3. In consideration of the concessions and privileges granted by this Order in Council the licensee shall pay to the Minister the sum of £2 10s., and thereafter an annual sum of £1 in advance, dating from the date hereof, the first of such annual payments to be made on the licensee being supplied with a copy of this Order in Council.

4. All persons shall, at all reasonable times and upon payment of the proper dues, have free and full liberty to use the said wharf, and all rights of ingress and egress thereon and therefrom.

6. The licensee shall maintain the above-mentioned wharf in good order and repair, and on being required to do so by the Minister shall exhibit therefrom and maintain at his own cost suitable and necessary lights for the guidance of vessels; provided that no light shall be exhibited until after it has been approved of by the Minister.

7. Any person authorized by the Minister may at all reasonable times enter upon the said wharf and view the state of repair thereof; and upon such Minister leaving at or posting to the last known address of the licensee in New Zealand a notice in writing of any defect or want of repair in such wharf, requiring him, within a reasonable time, to be therein prescribed, to repair the same, he shall with all convenient speed cause such defect to be removed or such repairs to be made.
