A structure on this site was demolished not long ago by the District
Office Squatter Control staff, and the operator was well aware of the consequence
of attempting to rebuild.
When serving the licence cancellation notices today, Mr. Savage told
the operators that he would consider issuing new licences only if the conditions
were met and that to this end tannery workers would be allowed access to the
premises over the next few days only to clean up and demarcate their boundaries.

MAN OVERBOARD SOUND SIGNALS
The Director of Marine, Mr. A. Fletcher, has reminded masters and
operators of local craft that the internationally recognised sound signal
in the event of a man falling overboard is three prolonged blasts.
In a public notice, the Director said that in a recent collision between
two local craft, a man fell overboard and was drowned but the sound signal
indicating that such an accident had occurred was not made.
"As a result," he added, "no vessels other than the two involved in
the accident, assisted in searching for the lost man."
