DELAYED IMPORTS
FURTHER LEGAL ACTION TARANAKI FIRM’S INTENTION (By Telegraph.—Press Association) NEW PLYMOUTH, Wednesday Court proceedings against the Customs Department to compel delivery of certain goods, which, it is claimed, are being illegally withheld by the department, are to be taken by a New Plymouth firm of importers. Instructions to proceed with the demand for the goods were issued by the firm to its solicitors to-day. The goods in question have been detained by the Customs Department because the firm docs not hold the necessary license under the import regulations for their importation. The decision to lake legal action follows the recent ruling of the Supreme Court at Auckland that the import regulations are invalid and that the Customs Department’s refusal to give delivery without the production of a license is illegal.
