TRANSFER OF MACHINERY
DEPARTMENT NOT NOTIFIED FREEZING COMPANY FINE®. Per Press Association. GISBORNE, September 21. A breach of the Machinery Act was alleged against Nelson’s, Ltd., in the Magistrate’s Court, the charge being that the company had disposed of oertain machinery without giving notice to an inspector.
