has applied to the Governor-General in Council for a license
under the Harbours Act, 1923 (hereinafter called “the said

with the provisions of the said Act, has deposited a plan
in the office of the Marine Department at Wellington (marked
M.D. 5971) showing the area of foreshore and land below
low-water mark intended to be occupied for such purpose :
And whereas it is desirable to grant the license applied for :
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 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 within a red line on the
plan so deposited as aforesaid, for the purpose of taking
away the shingle deposited thereon, 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.

  1. In these conditions the term “Minister” means the
    Minister of Marine as defined by the Shipping and Seamen
    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
    purposes hereinbefore mentioned, as shown within a red
    line in the plan marked M.D. 5971, and deposited in the
    office of the Marine Department as aforesaid.
  3. In consideration of the concessions and privileges granted
    by this Order in Council the licensee shall, on being supplied
    with a copy thereof, pay to the Minister the sum of £2 10s.,
    and thereafter shall deposit annually the sum of £104, to be
    applied as hereinafter provided, payable on the first day
    of April in each year; provided that in respect of the period
    from the date of this Order in Council until the 31st day of
    March, 1925, the amount to be deposited shall be an amount
    proportionate to the said period at the rate of £104 per annum,
    to be deposited on the licensee being supplied with a copy
    of this Order in Council.
  4. The royalty payable by the licensee in consideration of
    the concessions and privileges hereby granted shall be at
    the rate of 9d. per cubic yard on all shingle taken from either
    above or below high-water mark for the first two years of
    the period for which this license is granted, and at the rate
    of 1s. per cubic yard on all shingle so taken for the balance
    of the said period. If in any year the licensee fails to remove
    any shingle the deposit hereinbefore referred to shall be
    appropriated by the Minister as flat rent in respect of that
    year; but if during any year the licensee removes any shingle
    the deposit shall, in proportion to the amount of shingle so
    removed, be applied as royalty at the rate hereinbefore
    mentioned, but so that the minimum amount payable as
    combined royalty and flat rent in any one complete year
    shall be £104. All such payment shall be made to the Superin-
    tendent of Mercantile Marine at Auckland, or such other
    person as the Minister may direct.
  5. His Majesty or the Governor-General, and all other
    officers in the Government Service acting in execution of
    duty, shall at all times have free ingress, passage, and egress
    into, through, and out of the aforesaid land without payment.
  6. Nothing herein contained shall authorize the licensee to
    do or cause to be done anything repugnant to or inconsistent
    with any law relating to the Customs, or any regulation of
    the Minister of Customs, or with any provisions of the Har-
    bours Act, 1908, or its amendments, or any regulations made
    thereunder, and that are now or may hereafter be in force.
  7. The rights, powers, and privileges conferred by or under
    this Order in Council shall continue in force for the term of
    fourteen years, computed from the date hereof, unless in the
    meantime such rights, powers, and privileges are 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 Minis-
    ter first obtained.
  8. The rights, powers, and privileges hereby granted and
    conferred may be at any time resumed by the Governor-
    General, without payment of any compensation whatsoever,
    on giving to the licensee three calendar months’ previous
    notice in writing. 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
  9. The licensee shall keep a strictly accurate record of all
    shingle removed, whether from above or below high-water
    mark, and shall submit the same for inspection immediately
    at the end of each month to the Superintendent of Mercantile
    Marine at Auckland or such other officer as may be appointed
    by the Minister; and shall at the same time pay to the
    Superintendent or other officer as aforesaid the amount of
    royalty due to the Minister.
  10. In case the licensee shall-
    (1.) Commit or suffer a breach of the conditions herein-
    before set forth, or any of them;
    (2.) Become bankrupt, or be brought under the operation
    of any law for the time being in force relating to
    bankruptcy;
    (3.) Fail to pay the sums specified in Clauses 3 and 4 of
    these conditions,
    then and in any such case this Order in Council, and every
    license, right, power, or privilege thereby conferred, may
    be revoked and determined by the Governor-General in
    Council without any notice to the licensee or other proceeding
    whatsoever; and publication in the New Zealand Gazette of
    an Order in Council containing such revocation shall be
    sufficient notice to the licensee, and to all persons concerned
    or interested, that this Order in Council, and the license,
    rights, and privileges thereby granted and conferred, have
    been revoked and determined.
  11. Payment by the licensee of any of the sums herein-
    before mentioned shall be sufficient evidence of the acceptance
    by him of the terms and conditions of this Order in Council.
    F. D. THOMSON,
    Clerk of the Executive Council.
