Notification of Result of General Licensing Poll

PURSUANT to the Licensing Act 1908, I, Geoffrey Palmer, Minister of Justice, hereby give notice that, at the General Licensing Poll held on 14 July 1984 valid votes were recorded as follows:

For National Continuance 1 319 518
For State Purchase and Control 222 049
For National Prohibition 352 949
Total valid votes 1 894 516

As the total number of valid votes recorded for either State Purchase and Control or National Prohibition does not amount to more than one-half of the valid votes recorded at the poll, the result of the poll is that National Continuance is deemed to have been carried.

Dated at Wellington this 13th day of March 1985.

GEOFFREY PALMER, Minister of Justice.

As the Gazette has been published for more than 185 years, copyright status depends on the publication date of each issue:

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ... NZGOAL is the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence ... [t]o the greatest extent possible, agencies should apply this licence to copyright material on their websites"
