BLEDISLOE, Governor-General.
ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House at Wellington, this 15th day of
September, 1930.

Present:

His Excellency the Governor-General in Council.

WHEREAS, there being no Harbour Board empowered
to grant the license hereinafter mentioned, the Mount
Pleasant Boating Club (who with its successors and assigns,
is hereinafter referred to as "the club"), has applied to the
Governor-General in Council for a license under the Harbours
Act, 1923 (hereinafter called "the said Act"), to occupy
part of the foreshore in the Heathcote River, Sumner Estuary,
in order to erect and maintain thereon a boat-shed and club-
house (hereinafter referred to as "the said structure"), to
be erected in accordance with plan marked M.D. 6824, de-
posited in the office of the Marine Department at Wellington:

And whereas it has been made to appear to the Governor-
General in Council that the 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 desirable that a license should be granted
and issued to the club under the said Act for the purposes
aforesaid, 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 conferred upon 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 purposes or objects for which the said license is required
by the club 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 club to use and occupy that part of the foreshore which is
particularly shown and delineated on plan M.D. 6824 so de-
posited as aforesaid, for the purpose of erecting and main-
taining thereon the said structure, to be in accordance with the
said plan, such license to be held and enjoyed by the club
upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the
Schedule hereto.

    being supplied with a copy of this Order in Council.

  3. His Majesty or the Governor-General, and all officers in
    the Government service acting in the execution of their duty,
    shall at all times have free ingress, passage, and egress into,
    through, and out of the said structure without payment.

  4. All persons shall, at all reasonable times, and upon
    payment of the prescribed dues, have free and full liberty to

    posting to the last known address of the club in New Zealand
    a notice in writing of any defect or want of repair in the said
    structure or requiring the club, within a reasonable time to be
    therein prescribed, to repair the same, the club shall with all
    convenient speed cause such defect to be removed or such
    repairs to be made.

  7. Nothing herein contained shall authorize the club to do
    or cause to be done anything repugnant to or inconsistent
    with any law relating to the Customs, or with any provisions
    of the Harbours Act, 1923, or its amendments, or any regula-
    tions made thereunder, and that are now or may thereafter
    be in force.

  8. The rights, powers, and privileges conferred by or under

    rights, powers, and privileges shall be altered, modified, or

    assign, charge, or part with any such right, power, or privilege
    without the written consent of the Minister first obtained.

(4) Fail to pay the sum specified in clause 3 of these condi-
tions--

then, and in any of the said cases, this Order in Council, and
every license, right, power, or privilege, may be revoked and
determined by the Governor-General in Council without any
notice to the club 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
club 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.

  1. In the event of this Order in Council being revoked
    for any reason whatsoever, or upon the expiry of the period
    for which the license is granted, the club shall, if required
    by the Minister so to do, remove the said structure entirely
    from the site, and restore the site to its original condition
    within three months from the date of revocation or expiry,
    as the case may be; and if the club fails so to do, the Minister
    may cause the said structure to be removed and the site so
    restored, and may recover the costs incurred by the said
    removal and restoration from the club.

  2. The erection and maintenance of the said structure
    shall be sufficient evidence of the acceptance by the club of
    the terms and conditions of this Order in Council.

A. W. MULLIGAN,
Acting Clerk of the Executive Council.
