The matters referred to in the question are at present under review as are all other aspects of our system of customs control of cross-Border traffic. In this connection the Deputy will have noted my recent announcement of the extension of the concession pass scheme to additional classes of motorists living in Border areas. I am not yet in a position to say what other modifications of customs requirements may be decided upon. If any further changes are to be made, however, I would hope that they would be introduced before the 1967 tourist traffic begins to build up.
