No. 2 (l)-T./B./49.—In their Ministry of Commerce, Resolution No. 1-T(4)/ 48, dated the 20th March, 1948, the Government of India referred to the Tariff Board the case of the Hydraulic Brake Fluid industry for assistance or pro- tection. The Board, having conducted an enquiry, has submitted its report. Its main recommendations are as follows: —
(i) The, indigenous brake fluid industry does not require any special pro- tection.
(ii) When the standard specifications for brake fluid have been laid down and Government are satisfied that the indigenous product conforms to such specifications, the Provincial and Central Governments should purchase their requirements of brake fluid from the Indian manufacturers. As many of the Provincial Governments are nationalising the motor transport services, this form of assistance to the industry will provide the necessary impetus for its develop- ment.
(iii) The manufacturers of brake fluid should endeavour to use the raw material now available, i.e., denatured spirit to the fullest extent possible until India is able to manufacture butyl alcohol. 2. The Government of India accept recommendation (i) that the industry needs no protection. The attention of the Provincial Governments will be drawn to Recommendation (ii). The Government of India hope that the industry will take note of recommendation (iii).
