Biixs fob Repealing oe Altering ant Laws Relating to Supply Taxes ob Chabges upon the People . XIX . Having 1 now disposed of the first branch of the Inquirynamely , that which relates to the . , imposition .. . taxes , your committee ' will proceed to the other branch of the inquiry , or that which relates to the repeal of taxes . The rules with reference to this class of Bills are almost identical with those which are applicable to the other classes . Two of these rules are—first , that Bills for repealing taxes or charges of the people , like Bills for imposing" such taxes or charges , ought always to originate in the House of Commons ; and , secondly , that the Commons will not allowuthem to be amended in the Lords , except where the amendments are for the correction of clerical errors , or in furtherance of the intents and objects of the Bill .
XX . When the Lords have amended , the Commons have disagreed to such amendments , and the Bill has been lost or the Lords have given way . Thus , in the year 1699 , the Lords amended a Bill , intituled , "An Act for Making more Effectual an Act to restore the Market of Blackwell-hall to the Clothiers , and for Regulating the Factors there . " The Amendment was an addition at the end of the Bill as follows : — " And I that all such goods as shall be brought to the city of London be brought unto Blackwell-hall , there to remain until the duties for the relief of the poor children in Christ ' s Hospital be paid for the same . " The Commons disagreed , and a conference was desired . On the 19 th of April the Commons assigned as part of their reasons that" the amendment would create a charge upon the people , which the Commons can bv no means allow to arise but in their House . " On
the 20 th of April the conference was held , and on the 2 nd of May a message was sent to the Lords " to put them in mind of the Bill . " No further proceedings , however , were taken upon it and Parliament was prorogued on the 4 th of May . Again , in the year 1708 , the Lords amended a Bill intituled "An Act to Repeal a Clause in an Act of the Seventh Year of the Reign OfHislateMajesty , for Amending andRepairing ; the Highways . " The Commons disagreed . A conference was held . The reason as- , sigfned for disagreement by the Commons was " that one of the
amendments would impose a neyr tax on the subject . " The Lords waived their amendment . Similar cases with similar results occurred in 1700 , 1709 , 17 X 5 , and even aslate as 1834 Sometimes , when the Lords have amended , the difference has been terminated by the prorogation of Parliament , or __ by no further proceedings being taken upon the Bill . ( See Apj 3 . : No . 129 , 131-150 . ) -Sometimes the Bill has been simply laid aside by the Commons . ( See App . No . 135 and 150 . ) And in other cases the Bill has been laid aside , but new Bills have been brought in , embodying-occasionally the Lords' amendments . ( See App . No .. 136 , 137 , 145 , 148 ,
149 , 151 , 152 , 153 , 164 , 173 . ) When the Commons have agreed to the Lords' amendments such amendments have been usually made for the correction of clerical errors , or in furtherance of the intent and objects of the Bill . ( See App . No . 138 , 139 , 140 , 141 , 142 , 143 , 146 , 147 , 155 , 157 , 158 , 161 , 162 , 163 , 166 , 168 , 169 , 170 , 171 , 172 , 174 , 176 ,
177 . ) " ^ BftSc ^ FOirHEPixnra ^ Supply Taxes oe Chabges upon the People . - Practice of the Commons when the Lords postpone or reject . XXI . With regard to those cases where the Lords have rejected or postponed Bills for repealing or altering taxes or charges upon the people the practice has been as follows : — The earliest case under this head occurred in the year 1714 . There the Bill was a Bill for the relief of wine merchants in payment of their bonds . It was founded on a petition of several merchants ,
which on the 10 th of April had been referred to the Committee of Supply ; On the 12 th of April it was reported by thechairman from the Committee of Supply , " That they had considered the matter of the petition to them referred , and had directed him to move the House that leave may be given , to bring in a Bill , " according to the prayer of the petition . The Bill passed the House of Commons , but it was negatived by the Lords on theqnestion , " That the Bill do pass , *' and nothing further was done upon it . In the following- year a similar Bill , intituled " An Act for Relief of , Merchants , Importers of Tobacco and Wine , concerned in Bonds given for part of the duties on the same , " was rejected by tbe Lords .
On the 5 th of May , 1758 , the second reading of a Bill brought from the Commons , intituled , " An Act to Discontinue for a limited time the Duties payable upon Tallow imported from Ireland , " was ordered by the Lords to be put off till that day two months . Parliament was prorogued on the 20 th of June . On the 15 th of June , 1767 , a " Bill , intituled , " An Act to allow for a limited time the Free Importation of Salted Meat and Butter into this kingdom from any place , except Ireland , " was brought from the Commons | and on the 26 th of June it was ordqred by the
On the 13 th of June , 1808 , the Act of the 43 rd of George III ., cap . 68 , having been ordered to be read , it was resolved , in a Committee of the whole- House , to consider the duties on coals carried coastwise . The Act was a Supply Act . Founded on this resbluti 6 n , a Bill was brought in to repeal these duties , and for granting other duties in lieu thereof . The Bill passed the Commons on the . 22 nd of June ; on the 29 th of June it was put off by the Lords for three months . Parliament was prorogued on the 6 th of July . ' On the 12 th of March , 1811 , a Bill was brought in on report of Committee of the whole House , for suspending the duties on corn wash for the distillation of spirits from sugar in Scotland , and to enable distillers to make spirits from corn or from sugar-wash as the relative prices of the materials shall render it expedient . The Bill was sent to the Lords on the 11 th of April , and on the 6 th of May it was ordered to be read a second time on that day six mnnttis .
On the 27 th of June , 1816 , the Lords postponed , for three months , the second reading of a Bill for repealing the duties of Excise on stone bottles , and for imposing other duties in lieu thereof . These duties , amounting to 2 s . 6 d . in every hundred weight of stone bottles made in Great Britain , were founded on a resolution of a committee of Ways and Means , and they were granted to his Majesty towards raising the Supply for the year 1812 , by the 52 nd of George III ., cap . 139 . It is doubtful whether this case ought not to be placed in the class of Bills for imposing taxes . And on the 2 nd of July , 1858 , the Church-rates Abolition Bill , having been sent from the Commons , was rejected by the Lords .
There are other Bills of a similar character which have also been dealt with in a similar manner by the House of Lords ( see App . 187 , 188 , 190 , 191 , 192 , 195 , 197 S 206 , 208 ) , snd sometimes the House of Commons , on the rejection of such Bills , have passed other Bills on the same subject , arid sent them to the Lords . ( See App . 196 , 199 , 200 . ) 22 . In concluding this report on the practice of either House of Parliament with regard to the several descriptions of Bills imposing and repealing taxes , your committee have refrained from offering any opinion and from making any comments upon that practice , except to illustrate and explain , and they have abstained from-any statement 4 > f the practice of each House , except ~ in so far as such practice appears fronv the entries in the Journals . ¦
Lords that the House be put into committee on the said Hill that day two months . Parliament was prorogued on the flnd of July . On the 30 th of May , 1781 , " a Bill for extending the provisions of an Act made in the eighth year of the reign of His present Majesty , which relate to the reducing the duties on foul Bait used for manure , to foul salt to be used in making * marine acid and fixed fossil or mineral alkali , " was ordered by the Lords to be read a second time on that day three months . The Act hero referred to was the 8 th of George III ., cap . 25 , and though without the supply preamble it was founded on the resolution of a Committee of Ways « nd Means for raising a supply , to be granted to His Majesty .
