It is satisfactory note'that the Government has introduced a measure to remove that blot from the Statute Book which has enabled past Minifiirio:; to iloiit the will of.Parliament and divert votes for public works from one Department to another. When tho Public Revenues Act was passed- some years back, the then Opposition protested, but without avail,
r.gainst tho derogation of the functions of iho Legislature it proposed. In spite of continued protests, the so-called "Liberal" Government has allowed the measure to remain, and it is to the credit of Mr Masscy that he is taking the first available opportunity of restoring to ParliiniGiifc a privilege of which it should never have been robbed.
