Authorisation of Poll of Electors Residing in Part of a Special Area in Rodney Licensing District, Namely, the Mairetahi Riding of Waitemata County, Which includes Parakai

(Licensing Amendment Act (No. 2) 1953, Sections 14-17)

WHEREAS the Licensing Control Commission, following the review of the distribution of licences in Rodney Licensing District, is of opinion that the issue of a publican's licence should be authorised at Parakai within the Parakai special rating area for premises providing accommodation for not less than 40 guests in accordance with the Schedule of standards prescribed, such locality and area lying within part of Waitemata County and part of the said Rodney Licensing District:

And whereas the said locality of Parakai and certain other neighbouring localities lie within part of a special area as defined by section 14 (1) of the above-named Act:

Take notice that the Commission hereby authorises the taking of a poll of electors residing in the Mairetahi Riding of the Waitemata County (being part of a special area), on the proposal that the issue of licences be authorised therein (referred to as the Licensing Proposal), and on the further proposal that, if the licensing proposal is carried, every licence so authorised be issued to a local Trust (referred to as the Trust Proposal):

Pursuant to section 14, subsections (4) and (5) of the said Act, the Commission determines and specifies that the majority required to carry the licensing proposal is more than half of all the valid votes recorded in respect of the proposal.

NOTE-Section 14 (6) provides that the Trust Proposal shall be deemed to be carried by a similar majority.

Pursuant to section 15 (1) of the said Act the Commission:
(a) Defines the area within which the poll is to be taken as the whole of the Mairetahi Riding of Waitemata County.
(b) Fixes Saturday, 29 June 1957, as the date of the taking of the poll.
(c) Fixes Friday, 7 June 1957, as the date for the closing of the roll of electors.
(d) Appoints Leslie Llewellyn Jones, County Clerk of the Waitemata County Council, returning officer in respect of the poll, and authorises him to arrange and appoint such polling places within the Mairetahi Riding, and such deputy returning officers and/or clerks, as he deems advisable for the purposes of the poll.
(e) Directs the said returning officer to publish at least once in the N.Z. Herald and Auckland Star, in the earliest available issue of those newspapers, a copy of this authorisation and notice; and further directs the said returning officer to publish in the said newspapers a notice stating where the roll may be inspected within the said Mairetahi Riding as well as at his County Office, and the situation of the polling places appointed by him within such special area.
(f) Directs that the cost of preparing rolls and conducting the poll shall be borne by the Waitemata County Council.
(g) Directs that the said returning officer shall use the roll of electors of the Waitemata County for the Mairetahi Riding which shall be suitably marked to indicate the persons entitled to vote for the purposes of the poll; and, for the purpose of ensuring that electors residing on the date fixed for the closing of the rolls in the area in which the poll is to be taken are entitled to vote, directs that the returning officer shall prepare a supplementary roll.

NOTE-Section 16 of the said Act provides (inter alia) that "... every poll (as above) ... shall be taken in the same manner as polls in no-licence districts relating to local restoration, and the provisions of the principal Act (i.e., the Licensing Act 1908) relating to licensing polls, so far as they are applicable, shall apply."

By direction and on behalf of the Licensing Control Commission-

E. R. GRAHAM, Secretary.
