TREASURY MINUTE.-CUSTOMS
MANAGEMENT.:

My lords have before them the report pf the select com-
mittee which sat in 1851 and 1852, " to iiiquire into the con-
stitution and management of the Board of Customs, &c. ;"
which report divides the subjects of the investigation into
the following 14 heads :-
1. Constitution of the Board of Customs.
2. Appointment and promotion of officers.
3. Fines and satisfactions.
4. Ad valorem duties.
5. Seizures and stoppages, and adjudication of them.
6. Law of costs and penalties.
7. The transit system.
8. Fines on shipping.
9. Bonding system.
10. Passengers' luggage.
11. Hours of attendance.
12. Simplification of entries of free goods.
13. Codification.
14. Outports.

My lords have also before them a report made to their
lordships by the -Commissioners of Customs upon the report
of the committee, which was referred to them for that pur-
pose. The Commissioners of Customs treat each of the 14
subjects in the same order as that observed in the report of
the committee ; and my lords proceed to consider them in
the same order :

furnish the owner, when he is known, or his agent, with a
written notice, specifying the grounds of detention."
Second, the owner of goods seized has the option to have

his case adjudicated upon by the commissioners, on petition,
or, in the event of that not being satisfactory, by an exami-
nation conducted on oath before one of the commissioners
who will sit for that purpose, in pursuance of the following
notification, issued on the 231 of August, 1852 :
" August, 23, 1852.
" The Commissioners of her Majesty's Customs hereby give
notice, that they will be prepared, in any case of seizure in
London, under the Customs law, upon application being made
to them in writing, and where the owner of the goods, &c.,
may be desirous oisuch a course, to appbint one of the mem-
bers of the board to take the evidence on oath of the mer-
chants or other parties claiming the property on the one side,
and of the detaining officers on the other, supported by that
of any witnesses that may be necessary for the proper inves-
tigation of the case, and to report the same for the board's
decision, agreeably to the practice observed in cases of com-
plaints, by merchants and others, against officers."
But as it is apparent to my lords. that this means of adjudi-
cation is applicable only to London, my lords are pleased to
direct that, in the outports, persons whose goods are seized
may require to have the case investigated on oath.before the
collector or other principal officer of the port in the same
manner as before a commissioner in London.

Thirdly, Greater facilities have been granted for amending
entries in certain cases, without the loss of time caused by
applying to the commissioners. And my lords are of opinion
that, with these modifications,_ the present practice, as des-
cribed by the commissioners; and the application of the same
principles to the outports herein provided for, requires no
further alteration. But my lords hope that the experiment
made by the commissions, of entrusting their officers with the
power of permitting amendments and corrections of errors,
may prove by the result that that discretion may safely be
further extended.
