Vol. 29 No. 7

Private Business. - Resolution No. 3—Customs.

I move:—

(1) That the additional duties on dried fruits which were first imposed by Section 8 of the Finance (No. 2) Act, 1915, and were continued up to the first day of August, 1929, by Section 19 of the Finance Act, 1928 (No. 11 of 1928) shall continue to be charged, levied and paid on and from the said 1st day of August, 1929, up to the 1st day of August, 1930.

(2) That the provisions of Section 8 of the Finance Act, 1919, shall apply to the duties mentioned in this Resolution with the substitution of the expression "Saorstát Eireann" for the expression "Great Britain and Ireland."

(3) It is hereby declared that it is expedient in the public interest that this Resolution shall have statutory effect under the provisions of the Provisional Collection of Taxes Act, 1927 (No. 7 of 1927).

This is the duty on dried fruit. It has been in operation since 1915.

Motion put and agreed to.
