10. And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, That, upon the
importation of any foreign salt into this kingdom from any place from
whence, and in the manner in which such salt may be legally imported,
the importer or proprietor of such salt shall be at liberty to give bond
to his Majesty, his heirs and successors, for the payment of the duty
commonly called _The Old Subsidy_, and all further subsidies, imposts,
and duties, due and payable to and for the customs upon such salt,
within the space of twelve calendar months from the date of such bond,
but without any discount or allowance for prompt payment of the said
duties, or either of them; which bond the collector and comptroller of
his Majesty’s customs at the port of importation are hereby authorised
to take in his Majesty’s name, and thereupon to permit such salt to
be entered and landed in the usual manner; and if such salt shall be
exported again within the said space of twelve calendar months, the
bonds which shall have been given for the said duties thereon, shall be
cancelled and discharged; and in case the full duties payable to the
customs for such salt shall have been paid at or before the expiration
of the said twelve calendar months, and such salt shall be afterwards
exported into foreign parts within the time allowed by law, a drawback
of all the said duties which were so paid shall be allowed in the same
manner as the former drawback of the customs upon the exportation of salt
was, could or might be paid; and such salt shall be subject and liable
to the same rules, regulations, restrictions, securities, penalties, and
forfeitures, (except where any alteration is made by this act), as such
salt was subject and liable to by any act or acts of parliament in force
before the making of this act.
