An Act to reconstitute the Otago Harbour Board.
BE IT ENACTED by the General Assembly of New Zealand in Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:—
[Repealed]
The Otago Harbour Board may, out of its Harbour Fund, contribute a sum or sums not exceeding those contributed by persons or bodies other than the Harbour Board towards defraying the cost of building a sailors' home or other institution of a like character, and may contribute towards its maintenance: Provided that no money shall be so paid to any institution of a sectarian character, or which is not open to seafaring men of all descriptions, subject always to reasonable regulations as to subscriptions, and for the preservation of order and decency.
Goods, wares, or merchandise may be charged by weight, measurement, or package, and the rates charged on different classes of goods may be varied from time to time so as to discriminate between one class and another, as the Board may from time to time determine.
Notwithstanding anything in the Harbours Act 1950, or in The Otago Harbour Board Empowering Act 1875, contained, it shall be lawful for the Board to exempt any class of goods, wares, and merchandise from the payment of export dues or rates.
