205 Governor may restrict privileges of foreign ships in certain cases
If it appears to the Governor-General—
(a)
that Commonwealth ships are subject in any foreign country, either directly or indirectly,—
(i)
to any prohibitions or restrictions as to the voyages in which they may engage, or as to the articles they may import into or export from such country; or
(ii)
to any duties or charges of any sort from which the national ships of such country are exempt; or
(b)
that any duties are imposed upon articles imported or exported in Commonwealth ships that are not equally imposed upon the like articles imported or exported in national ships; or
(c)
that any preference is shown, either directly or indirectly, to national ships over Commonwealth ships, or to articles imported or exported in national ships over the like articles imported or exported in Commonwealth ships; or
(d)
that British trade and navigation is not placed by such country upon as advantageous a footing as the trade and navigation of the most favoured nation,—
he may in any such case, subject to the provisions of the Shipping and Seamen Act 1952, by Order in Council, impose such prohibitions or restrictions, or such duties of tonnage, upon the ships of that country entering into or departing from the ports of New Zealand, or such duties on all goods or on any specified classes of goods imported or exported in the ships of that country, as appear to him justly to countervail the disadvantages to which British trade or navigation is so subjected as aforesaid.
