N.S.W. LEGISLATION.
SYDNEY, September 30.
The Government’s proposals to increase the rate of fami-y endowment tax mid to make it applicable to all employers, whether they operate under the Federal or State awards ,passed all stages in the Assembly. Mr Lang, in Parliament, foreshadowed a dozen measures which lie desired to have passed at one sitting, to enable the House to go into recess.
Opposition members protested against the rush of legislation. The Legislative Council refused to proceed with the programme outlined by the Vice-President. This Chamber refused to sit again all night, as the Assembly is doing.
