WHEREAS by “ The Sea-fisheries Act, 1894 ” (hereinafter termed “ the said Act ”), it is, amongst other things, enacted that the Governor in Council may from time to time make regulations for the purposes therein mentioned, which shall have general force and effect throughout the colony, or particular force and effect only in any waters or places specified therein : And whereas by Order in Council dated the nineteenth day of October, one thousand nine hundred and three, and published in the New Zealand Gazette No. 82, of the twentysecond day of the same month, certain regulations were made prescribing the size of mesh of trawl-nets: And whereas it is expedient to revoke the said Order in Council of the nineteenth day of October, one thousand nine hundred and three, and the regulations made thereunder, and to make the regulations set forth in the Schedule hereto:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers conferred upon him by the said Act, and of all other powers and authorities enabling him in that behalf, and by

and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said colony, doth hereby revoke the said Order in Council of the nineteenth day of October, one thousand nine hundred and three, and the regulations made thereby, and doth hereby make the regulations set forth in the Schedule hereto; and with the like advice and consent doth order that the said regulations shall have force and effect throughout the colony on and after the first day of May, one thousand nine hundred and five.

SCHEDULE

Regulations as to Trawl-nets,

1. The mesh of every trawl-net shall measure, when prepared for use, wetted, and stretched, not less than the following dimensions: viz., in wings and body, 5 in.; in cod end, 4 in.

2. The size of mesh in every case shall be ascertained by measuring the length between knot and knot of opposite corners, with the mesh closed, the net being first wetted and stretched, and being tanned, tarred, or otherwise prepared for use. In case of dispute or doubt, a lib. weight shall be slung or attached to one knot of a mesh, in order to produce a fair strain or extension, and the space between the top and bottom knots shall be measured forthwith while the mesh remains extended. If the net to be measured is dry, the part to be measured shall be soaked either in fresh or salt water for not less than ten minutes, and the mesh so soaked shall then be measured.

3. Any fishery officer may, at any reasonable time, examine and measure any trawl-net used, or which he has reason to believe is intended to be used, for fishing purposes. 4. Every person shall be liable to a penalty of not less than £1 or more than £2O who uses for fishing purposes, or has in his possession for such use, any trawl-net the mesh of which is of less size than is hereinbefore prescribed, or who, being in possession of any trawl-net, refuses to allow any fishery officer to measure the same, or in any way prevents or obstructs him in so doing.
