Conclusion and Recommendations. -As the result of the considerations
outlined shove under the three sever- al heads we have come unanimously to the following conclusion t
That there should be uniform legislation throughout the Empire on the lines of the existing Acts dealing with shipowners' liability, but based more precisely on the Canadian Water Carriage of Geoda Act, 1910, subject to certain further provisions ¡ în regard to.-.
() exceptional cases in which goods should be allowed to be carried by shipowners at owner's risk:
(ii) the precise definition of the physical limits to the shipowner's liability;
(1) the fixing of madman values for packages up to which shipowners should be liable to pay.
We make the Canadian Water Carriage of Goods Act, and not the Harter Act which it close resembles, the basis of our recommendation | because it embodies the latest exper- lence. It was passed in 1910 where- as the Australian Sea Carriage of Goods Act was passed in 1904 and the New Zealand Shipping and Sea men Act, certain sections "of which deal with shipowners liability, was passed in 1903. The Harter Act was pased in 1993. 201
