Your Committee, therefore, turned their attention, in the first instance, to an inquiryinto those circumstances attend ing the execution of the laws relating to the duties on salt ; which have been found particularly inconvenient to the trade in that article, anal which admitted of au immediate remedy without any very material clanger to the rive and, secondly, they called fur such accounts, and exam 111 such evidence, as might lay a foundation fur the juolEsurill of the House, or ()Noy Committee which may hereafter 1w appointed, with n view of proposing a permanent settlenieut.

From those Reports, as well as from the evidence of William Jackson, Esq. one of the Commissioners of Excise, and Mr. M'Cu►quudak, • merchant concerned in the salt trade at Liverpool, it appeared, that the great amount of the bonds required by law of persons shipping salt for ex portation or coastwise, together with the diffiesillyof procur ing such bonds to be cancelled, especially in Ilse case of salt sent to the fisheries, and the want of a tine allowance fur the waste unavoidably taking place dnring the voyage, by the leakage of the vessel, or other accidents, were f; the most inconvenient of the regislationa imposed upon the trade ; and that it was possible to give some indulgence with respect to those p a, without materially increasing the oppoitunities of fraud on the Revenue. These considera tions induced yinir Committee to come to the follu• iug Re solutions, vix.- I . hat, for promoting soil encouraging the fisheries of Gr. at Britain, and for the "lief of the merchants and agent a concerned its proettrissz and supplying salt for the same, it is expedient that bond ur security should be taken for the due delivery of such salt, in the single value of the duty only. Tim, in all cases its whirl. any salt shall he shipped ur de livered duly-free for the owe of the fisheries, it shall he las fill for the principal unin r of excise, at the port at which such wilt shall lie so shipped or delivered, to accept the hooded* auy sufficient and responsible person., to be approved of by such officer. Thai, in all eases in whirls the dr ficienry of any iluty-fete salt, delivered hi the ft•hrrirs, or carried coastwise, shall not exceed one per cent of liar weight of Such salt, such defi ciency shall be allowed as oatmeal waste, on proof that it has nut been occasioned by fraud Or rinhezzlement.
