Gerald John Lane, of Rawene (hereinafter called “the
licensee”), has applied to the Governor-General in Council
for a license under the said Act to occupy a part of the
foreshore at Rawene, in Hokianga Harbour, in order to erect
and maintain a platform thereon; 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. 5623), showing the area of foreshore
intended to be occupied, and the manner in which it is proposed
to erect the said platform on site marked No. 34 on the said
plan:

And whereas it has been made to appear to the Governor-
General 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-General 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 aforesaid, on the terms and conditions herein-
after expressed:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor-General 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
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 con-
sent as aforesaid, doth hereby license and permit the licensee
to use and occupy that part of the foreshore on which the
said platform is to be erected, as shown on the plan so de-
posited as aforesaid, for the purpose of erecting and main-
taining the said platform thereon, such license to be held and
