Mr KELLY (Wentworth) (4:57 AM) . - It has been represented to me that it is rather extraordinary that cheese caps should be dutiable.


Mr Tudor - They do not come under this item.


Mr KELLY - No, but they come under a kindred item. I suggest to the Minister that he might ascertain why they are not admitted free, like cheese wrappings.


Mr Tudor - Piece goods are 5 per cent, or free. If persons like to get in the material free, surely there is no difficulty in cutting out the caps here.


Mr KELLY - It is a rather vexatious proceeding ; in fact, it is not worth the trouble. At any rate, I make the suggestion to the Minister.


Mr Tudor - I shall be very pleased to look into the matter.
