ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House, at Wellington, this twenty-second day of December, 1874.

Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE ADMINISTRATOR OF THE GOVERNMENT IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS by the nineteenth section of “The Public Health Act, 1872,” it is enacted that the Governor in Council may make orders from time to time, directing that the provisions thereafter in that part of the said Act contained, or any of them be put in force in New Zealand, or in such parts thereof or in such places therein as in such orders respectively may be expressed, and may in like manner revoke or renew any such order; and, subject to revocation or renewal as aforesaid, every such order shall be in force for six calendar months from the publication of such order, or for such shorter period as in such order shall be expressed, and no longer; and every such order shall be published in the General Government Gazette, and such publication shall be conclusive evidence of such order to all intents and purposes; and none of the said provisions shall be in force in any part of New Zealand until an order directing the same to be put in force shall have been made and published as aforesaid:

And whereas by an Order in Council bearing date the twenty-fourth day of June last, and published in the New Zealand Gazette of the twenty-fifth day of June last, His Excellency the then Governor did thereby, in exercise and pursuance of all power and authority in that behalf in him vested, direct that the provisions contained in the sections of the said Act numbered from twenty to forty-five, both inclusive, should be put in force in the Province of Westland:

And whereas the period of six calendar months within which the said Order in Council should remain in force will expire on the twenty-fourth day of December instant, and it is desirable and expedient to renew the same as hereinafter mentioned:

Now therefore, His Excellency the Administrator of the Government, with the advice and consent of the Executive Council, and in exercise and pursuance of the power and authority aforesaid, doth hereby direct that from and after the expiration of six calendar months from the publication of the said Order in Council the same shall and is hereby renewed.
