    “Low-water mark” means low-water mark at ordinary
    spring tides:
    “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 edged red on
    the plan marked M.D. 6182, 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 company 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
    £125, 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

    of the concessions and privileges hereby granted shall be at
    the rate of 1s. 3d. per cubic yard on all shingle and sand
    taken from the said area, and/or shipped across the foreshore.
    If in any year the company fails to remove any shingle or
    sand 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 company removes any shingle and sand,
    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 £125. All such payments shall be made to the
    Superintendent of Mercantile Marine at Auckland, or such
    other person as the Minister may direct.

    duties, shall at all times have free ingress, passage, and egress
    into, through, and out of the said land without payment.

  6. Nothing herein contained shall authorize the company
    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 Harbours Act, 1923, 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 company shall not assign, charge, or part with any such right,
    power, or privilege, without the written consent of the Minister
    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 company 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
    registered office of the company in New Zealand.

  9. The company shall keep a strictly accurate record of all
    shingle and sand removed, whether from above or below low-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 company shall—
    (1.) Commit or suffer a breach of the conditions hereinbefore set forth, or any of them:
    (2.) Be in any manner wound up or dissolved:
    (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 company or other proceedings whatsoever; and publication in the New Zealand Gazette
    of an Order in Council containing such revocation shall be
    sufficient notice to the company, 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 company of any of the sums hereinbefore mentioned shall be sufficient evidence of the acceptance
    by the company of the terms and conditions of this Order in
    Council.

Clerk of the Executive Council.
