TOWN'-HALL, LIVERPOOL,
28th September, 1847.
iT n MEETING of GEORGE HALL LAWRENCE,
Esquire, Mayor of Liverpool, J. BRAMLEY-MOORE,
Esquire, Chairman of the Dock Committee, and TRAFFORD
TRAFFORD, Esquire, Chairman of the Quarter Sessions for
the County of Chester, holden at Knutsford, held in the TOWN-
BALL, on TUESDAY, the 28th September, 1847, for the purpose
of the triennial revision of the Schedule of Rates, upon Vessels
entering the Port of Liverpool, and not using the Liverpool
Docks; in conformity with the provisions of the 106th Section
of the Dock Act of the 4th Victoria.
.Resolved,
That the said Revisors having taken the accounts required by
the said Act, for three years, ending the 24th of June, 1847,
according to the classes of voyages performed by vessels as set
forth in the Schedule of the said Act ; and being of opinion that
the Tonnage Rates by the said Act imposed, are too much with
reference to the increase of the gross amount of tonnage on
vessels entering the said port, during the term aforesaid, as
compared with the three years preceding this revision ; the
said revisers do hereby reduce the Tonnage Rates by the said
Act imposed, at and after the rate of Twenty per Cent., or one-
fifth, upon the amount of the Tonnage Rates specified in the
said schedule, according to the classes of voyages performed by
vessels as set forth in the same schedule; and do order and
direct that such reduction shall take place from and after the
First Day of October, 1847.
