LOWER BEER DUTY
Preference for Britain RATE OF 2/- A GALLON A reduction of one-third in the British preferential tariff on ale, beer, porter, and cider was the subject of an Order-in-Council gazetted last evening. The preferential rate and the general tariff fixed by the Customs Acts Amendment Act, 1931, were both three shillings for a gallon or for lots of six reputed quart bottles or the equivalent in bottles of other capacity. ! The amendment gazetted last evening reduces the preferential rate to two shillings for a gallon or its equivalent in bottles. The amendment also exempts beer and ales from various British Dominions from the surtax.
