NEW ZEALAND 1593 minster, the Eighteenth day of November 1907, We did constitute, order, and declare that there should be a Governor and Commander- tn-Chief in and over Our Dominion of New Zealand, and did authorize, empower, and command Our said Governor and Commander-in-Chief to do and execute all things belonging to his said office as therein is more particularly set forth : And whereas by Our said Letters Patent We did declare that, in the event of the death, incapacity, or removal of Our said Governor and Commander-in-Chief or of his departure from the Dominion, Our Lieutenant-Governor, or if there should be no such Officer in the Dominion, then such person or persons as We might appoint under Our Sign Manual and Signet, should during our pleasure administer the Government of the same : Now know you that by this Our Commission, under Our Sign Manual and Signet, We do appoint you the Chief Justice for the time being of Our said Dominion of New Zealand, until Our further pleasure shall be signified, to administer the Government thereof in case of the death, incapacity, or removal, or of the departure from the Dominion of Our said Governor and Commander-in-Chief, as well as of Qur Lieutenant-Governor (if any), with all and singular the powers and authorities granted by Our said Letters Patent, or by any other Letters Patent adding to, amending, or substituted for the same ; and, in the said event, and in case of the death, incapacity or departure from Our said Dominion of the said Chief Justice for the time being, then We do appoint you, the Senior Judge for the “ime being of the Supreme Court of Our said Dominion, then residing therein, and not being under incapacity, to administer the Govern- ment thereof, with all the powers and authorities aforesaid. And We do hereby authorize and require you the said Chief Justice or the said Senior Judge for the time being, as the case may be, to exercise and perform the said powers and authorities according to such Instruc- tions as Our said Governor and Commander-in-Chief or Our said Lieutenant-Governor hath already received or may hereafter receive from Us, under Our Sign Manual and Signet, or through one of Our Principal Secretaries of State, and according to such laws as are now or shall hereafter be in force in Our said Dominion. Provided always that you, the Senior Judge, shall act in the administration of the Government only when and so often as you, the said Chief Justice, shall not be present within the Dominion and capable of administering the Government. And We do hereby appoint that from and after the date of the coming into operation of Our above recited Letters Patent of the Eighteenth day of November 1907, this Our present Commission shall supersede the Commission under the Sign Manual and Signet of Her late Majesty Queen Victoria dated the Twentv-second day of + This clause meets a difficulty which was raised in Victoria in 1875 as to the right, of the Chief Justice to resume the administration from the Senior Judge witer once the latter had commenced to act : see Standard, March 17, 1875.
