Whebe any property is enemy property within the meaning of section 3 of the War Regulations Amendment Act, 1916, by reason of the fact that any interest in that property (whether such interest is that of ownership or any lesser interest) belongs or ai any time since the commencement of the present war with Germany has belonged to any person or company of enemy nationality, descent, origin, residence, connections, or associations (other than a person resident in New Zealand or a company incorporated in New Zealand), the Attorney-General may, by order signed and gazetted by him, order and declare that such interest shall be vested in the Public Trustee as the Custodian of Enemy Property. 2. On the gazetting of any such order the interest to which it relates shall thereupon vest in the Public Trustee as the Custodian of Enemy Property in trust to sell the same, and to hold the same and the income thereof, and the proceeds of the sale thereof, in trust for all persons entitled thereto in accordance with their respective rights and titles. 3. When the interest so vested in the Public Trustee is a registered interest in land under the Land Transfer Act, 1915, the District Land Registrar shall, on the request of the Public Trustee, register him as the proprietor of that interest in the same manner as if that interest had been duly transferred to the Public Trustee by the registered proprietor thereof, and the order of the Attorney-General shall be a sufficient warrant for such registration accordingly. 4. The Public Trustee may in such manner and on such terms as he thinks fit sell and transfer any interest so vested in him. 5. The proceeds of any such sale, and all revenues derived by the Public Trustee from any interest so vested in him, shall be disposed of in accordance with the trusts affecting the same in his hands. All such moneys for the time being unexpended by the Public Trustee shall be invested by him in the common fund of the Public Trust Office. No moneys so invested shall, so far as payable to any person to whom payment is unlawful during the present war, bear any interest.

Unlawful Meetings. 6. If the Commissioner of Police is satisfied that any place is about to be used or is likely to be used for the holding of any meeting or meetings having reference to the war, and of a kind injurious to the public safety or the interests of His Majesty in respect of the war, the Commissioner may by notice prohibit the use of that place for meetings having reference to the war. 7. So long as any such notice remains in force with respect to any place, every meeting held in that place and having reference to the war shall, unless held in pursuance of a written permit issued by the Commissioner of Police, be an unlawful meeting within the meaning and for the purposes of these regulations. 8. Every person who permits an unlawful meeting to be held in or upon any premises or land owned or occupied by him shall be guilty of an offence against these regulations, and shall be liable accordingly. 9. Every person, other than a constable or a person acting in aid of the police, who is present at an unlawful meeting, or who is a party to the holding of any such meeting, shall be guilty of an offence against these regulations, and shall be liable accordingly. 10. So long as any such notice remains in force with respect to any place, a constable may at all times by day or night, when he has reason to believe that any meeting is being or is about to be held in that place, enter upon that place and upon every part thereof, and any one who obstructs a constable in the exercise of this right of entry shall be guilty of an offence against these regulations, and shall be liable accordingly. 11. Every such notice shall be given either by publishing the same in some newspaper circulating in the neighbourhood of the place to which the notice relates, or by publicly exhibiting the same at that place. Every person who without lawful authority removes or otherwise interferes with any notice so exhibited at any time while it remains in force shall be guilty of an offence against these regulations, and shall be liable accordingly. 12. It shall be sufficient if any such notice issued in respect of any place sets forth that meetings having reference to the war are prohibited in that place under the War Regulations. 13. Every such notice shall remain in force until revoked by the Commissioner of Police by a notice published in some newspaper circulating in the neighbourhood of the place to which it relates.
