It certainly makes it clearer in so far as an article such as tea is concerned. It makes it more flexible and more elastic for the Minister and all concerned. But as far as an article, such as cloth, is concerned, you are possibly doing yourself and the local authorities an injury there. My opinion is that the words "prescribed standard of quality" would be a much better expression than to have him supply something which he himself states he is going to supply. Even so far as tea is concerned, you could have got over that by leaving in "standard of quality" I am afraid that you are doing a bigger wrong in the one way than in the other. I see the Minister's point so far as tea is concerned; that is, where the Minister asks for tea at, say 1/6 per lb., or even for cloth at, say 2/6 per yard. Now, if you make a comparison between the two, the Minister and the local authorities might be injured in the one case but not in the other. I think it is better to have there, "prescribed standard of quality". I would much prefer to see the words left in. I can quite see the difficulty about tea or some other commodity of that kind, but so far as hardware or cloth is concerned, I would much prefer that the standard of quality should be prescribed rather than have somebody supply something that he said was worth 2/3 per yard, or 4/5 per yard, or whatever it might be. I am afraid you are going to do an injury to the Department and the local authorities by putting in that amendment.
