Quarterly Payments
~ Not Approved by Department JN the House of Representatives on Friday, Mr. R. Semple made a plea that the regulations requiring the payment of an annual fee for the operation of receiving sets should be modified in the direction -of permitting quarterly payments. He represented that juniors in receipt of small salaries frequently found it difficult to raise the full license fee of 30s. in one sum, but would be prepared to make quarterly payments. In reply, the Minister, Hon. J. B. Donald, Postmaster-General, stated that if licenses to. listeners were issued quarterly it would be necessary to imerease the _ present charge in order’to cover the additional clerical work and inspecting duties which would result. This reply evoked from Mr. P. Fraser, Wellington Central, the comment, "A miserable departmental subterfuge!’"? for which he was called to order by the Speaker.
