Free Passes to Judges

The next subject was that of free passes for judges. The remarks of the Subcommittee on this were as follows :—"The advantages derived from annual shows of pedigree stock is admitted on all sides, and as competent judges often, with great personal inconvenience, give their time free of charge for the judging of stock, it is thought that the Government, in the interests of the colony, should grant free passes to all our judges."

Mr Sinclair moved—"That the Government be asked to grant free passes on the railway to judges travelling to all agricultural shows."

Mr T. Mackenzie seconded the motion, which was carried.
