WHEREAS, there being no Harbour Board empowered to grant the license hereinafter mentioned, Thomas Percival Lane, of Rawene (who with his executors, administrators, and assigns, is hereinafter referred to as “the licensee”), has applied to the Governor-General in Council for a license under the Harbours Act, 1923 (hereinafter called “the said Act”), to occupy a part of the foreshore below low-water mark at Rawene, in Hokianga Harbour, as a site for a store, and, in accordance with the one-hundred-and-seventy-first section of the said Act, has deposited a plan in the office of the Marine Department at Wellington (marked M.D. 6283), showing the place where it is intended to construct such store, the area of foreshore and land below low-water mark intended to be occupied for such purpose, and the manner in which it is proposed to erect the said store on the site marked as an extension to site number 8 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 under the said Act, for the purpose aforesaid, should be granted and issued to the licensee on the terms and conditions hereinafter 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 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 as an extension to site number 8 on the plan so deposited as aforesaid, for the purpose of maintaining thereon a store constructed in accordance with the said plan, such license to be held and enjoyed by the licensee upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Schedule hereto.
