Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law Relating to Rates and Traffic on Railways and Canals: With Special Reference to the Railway and Canal Traffic Act, 1888 and the Practice of the Railway and Canal Commission, With an Appendix of Statutes, Rules, Etc The present volume deals only with that branch of the law applicable to railway and canal companies, which is affected by the Act of last session, viz., the law relating to Rates and Traffic - in other words, the law relating to the facilities which those companies are bound to afford for the transmission of goods, and the charges which they are authorised to demand in return from the public. That Act effects three important changes. (1.) It provides for the revision of the statutory charging powers of all railway and canal companies, and endeavours by this means to bring about a simplification of rates, and to set at rest the vexed question of terminals. (2.) It amends, modifies, and explains the existing law. (3.) It establishes a new and permanent tribunal for the determination of differences between railway and canal companies and the public. The main objects of the present volume are to make clear the nature and extent of these changes, and to present a statement of the existing law in a form at once useful to the practitioner or railway official, and intelligible to the general reader. It has been thought that these objects are likely to be best attained by dividing the book into chapters according to the heads of the subject-matter, pointing out in each chapter the effect of the Act upon the particular head under discussion. At the same time the author has endeavoured to preserve the advantages of a chronological arrangement of statutes by printing the unrepealed provisions of the earlier Acts, and the full text of the Act of 1888, in an Appendix, with short notes and full references to the text.
