WHEREAS, there being no Harbour Board empowered to grant the license hereinafter mentioned, William Parorata Wellington, of Tutukaka (hereinafter called “the licensee”), has applied to the Governor-General in Council for a license under the Harbours Act, 1923 (hereinafter called “the said Act”), to use and occupy a part of the foreshore in Tutukaka Harbour for the purpose of taking away the shingle deposited thereon; and, in accordance with the provisions of the said Act, has deposited a plan in the office of the Marine Department at Wellington (marked M.D. 6668), showing the area of foreshore 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 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.

   “Foreshore” means such parts of the bed, shore, or banks of a tidal water as are covered and uncovered by the flow and ebb of the tide at ordinary spring tides:
   “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 necessary for the purposes hereinbefore mentioned, as shown within a red line in the plan marked M.D. 6668, 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 £20, to be applied as hereinafter provided, payable on the 1st 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, 1930, the amount to be deposited shall be an amount proportionate to the said period, at the rate of £20 per annum, to be deposited on the licensee being supplied with a copy of this Order in Council.

All such payments shall be made to the Superintendent of Mercantile Marine at Auckland, or such other person as the Minister may direct.

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 revoked by competent authority as hereinafter provided; and the licensee shall not assign, charge, or part with any such right, power, or privilege without the previous written consent of the Minister first obtained.
