President: Do we accept the charge of two dollars for each tap?
 Honourable Member for Kingstown : For the supply? I would not. say first,
second, or third tap.
 President : The section reads, not more than one tap.................."
 Honourable Member for Kingstown : I am going to challenge this and
Regulation 4; I do not like this tap system at all.
 President : What is the feeling as regards Regulation 3?
 Honourable O. D. Brisbane : Two dollars for the first tap.
 President : The suggestion is that for the moment we charge one dollar for
each tap until we can get a meter and then it will be metered.
 Honourable Member for Kingstown : I do not agree with that, sir. If you
are going to meter, meter everybody; but if you are going to take the size of the
pipe, if a man is supplied with a half inch service he gets a half inch supply and
that is all. We are only copying that because it is in the Trinidad Ordinance.
 Honourable 0. D. Brisbane : St. Vincent should always set the pace, but the
point is not to charge a large sum but to charge a small amount for each tap and
charge an amount for one tap. Some people might want a tap in each room.
 Honourable Member for Grenadines: If you have a half inch supply of
water and you put ten taps you cannot get the water until you close some of the
taps. You are going to charge the people for putting a tap instead of using a
bucket.
 Honourable MemDer for Kingstown : The taos make no difference.
 Superintendent of Works : Suppose you lead in a 3/4 inch tube?
 Honourable Member for Kingstown : You charge for whatever you tap the
 main with. We do not tap with a % inch tube and give you a half inch supply
 and charge for a half inch.
 President : The point is we have now got this Regulation 3 as regards
 churches, etc., and apparently they are likely to have taps.
 Honourable Member for Kingstown : I think the supply to the premises is
 all we have to consider.
 President : Mr. McIntosh says he does not think that we should charge for
 taps at all. Do you think they should be metered?
 Honourable Member for Kingstown : Either metered or as we do now in
 regard to the size of the pipes.
 Are you going to change up the whole system in Kingstown?
 Honourable Acting Crown Attorney: This is for the outside areas, the
 Kingstown Board has its own rates.
 Honourable Member for Kingstown: You are going to have a different
 system.
 Honourable Acting Crown Attorney : For Kingstown?
 Honourable Member for Kingstown : Are you going to be more oppressive?
 It is oppressive. I am not getting any more water because I have six taps and
 you are going to charge me more.
 Honourable W. A. Hadley: If you have a low pressure you do not get any
 water.
