The Government, in exercise of the powers conferred on them by section 1 of the Emergency Imposition of Duties Act, 1932 (No. 16 of 1932), as adapted in consequence of the enactment of the Constitution, and of every and any other power them in this behalf enabling, do hereby order as follows :—

4. The provisions of section 8 of the Finance Act, 1919, shall apply to the duty imposed by this Order with the substitution of the expression " the area of application of the Acts of the Oireachtas " for the expression " Great Britain and Ireland " and as though goods chargeable with the said duty were mentioned in the Second Schedule to that Act in the list of goods to which two-thirds of the full rate is made applicable as a preferential rate.
