Mallet sends the Board of Trade’s approval of sections one, two and three of an Ordinance to amend Customs Duties. However, the Board does not approve of the fourth section because its effect is to restrict, to a great extent, the navigation at the ports of British Columbia, to the vessels clearing from one port of that Colony.

Office of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade Whitehall
24th December 1864 Sir,

I am directed by the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade, to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 13th October last, transmitting by desire of the Secretary of State for the Colonies, a Copy of an Ordinance passed by the Legislature of British Columbia, "to amend Customs Duties."

In reply, I am to request that you will inform Mr Cardwell thatMy My Lords see no reason to object to S.S. 1, 2 and 3.

With regard to the 4th Section, to which special reference is made in your letter, I am to state that as its effect is to restrict, to a great extent, the navigation at the ports of British Columbia, to the vessels clearing from one port of that Colony, My Lords are unable to recommend its adoption on grounds of commercial policy, but that the question of allowing the clause appears to them to be one which must be decided with reference to the political considerations advanced by the Governor.

I have the honor to be, Sir, Your obedient servant Louis Mallet Pr. SecycompanySecretary
