§. 22. [ 1 ] [ 67 ] Page 48. §. 22 [ As his or their fee. ] [ There shall be paid . . . . to the . . . . Clerk . . . . as his . . . fee ] A
shilling appears to be as common a Statutable Clerk's fee as
any, where, as here, the operation to be performed is such
for it is in that is of a nature to be attended
with little or no trouble. In the Country Districts
where the Clerk's time of attendance is for the present purpose the same as
that for the purpose of the Alehouse Licencing Districts business, and
where the operation of giving notices will be
performed, as in that business, by the Constables
without any separate care being requisite on his part,
this minimum will, it is thought supposed, be sufficient:
In the Towns Corporate, where an extra time
of licencing is to be proposed to be appointed for
the special purposes of this Act, and the charge
of giving the requisite notices is imposed upon the
Clerk, an additional 6d, 1s, or 1s 6d, according
to the magnitude of the Town in question compared
with the multitude of the licences, will, it it is
apprehended, be no more than reasonable.
The provision for this purpose, trifling as this object may appear,
could not consistently with precedent, or even
with abstract utility, be omitted. If positive
law did not fill up the blank with a moderate
fee, rapacity seconded by opportunity would fill
it up by with an immoderate one. In the Horse
slaughtering licence Act [ 26 G. 3 c. 71. ] no provision
the Statute which by which no duty is imposed
no duty for to the use
benefit of the public,
being silent on that head, the
Clerk of the Peace in a certain District imposes
a duty of 13s : 4d , for levies to his own benefit use a
duty of 13s: 4d : it being that is to say 3s : 4d or 33 per Cent
more than the amount of the Duty proposed to be
levied to the public use in the case of some of the
occupations subject to licence by which it is here proposed to licence.
